ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book emphasizes its key points and their implications for the development of contemporary African social and political philosophy. It explores the specificity and the sources of this philosophy. The book discusses the purpose of African social and political philosophy as including the duty to clarify political concepts in use in African political debate. It criticizes the reduction of sources of African social and political philosophy to written texts and works of professional thinkers. The book considers the relevance of negritude's method of endorsement and its revolutionary dimension aiming at inverting colonial stigmas to relativize Western discourse. It examines the development of African cultures in the era of globalization. The book concludes that contemporary African social and political philosophy is an immense project that has been little explored up to now.
