ABSTRACT

This chapter is an axiological investigation into ubuntu itself. Specifically, it examines the axiological advantages of ubuntu. Such advantages include ubuntu's focus on reconciliation, shared identity, solidarity, and friendliness. I also explore the advantages of consensus-based decision-making. While I do identify a number of different ways that one might push back against some of these advantages, I conclude that they do offer some support for pro-ubuntu, the view that a world where is ubuntu is true is better than one where it is false.
