Violence in /and the Great Lakes

Is ... a homage to Valentin Mudimbe. This collection of essays honours the intellectual legacy of Mudimbe, for decades now one of Africa and the diaspora's most significant minds, by taking up the challenges -- ethical, political, philosophical, literary, sociological, anthropological, psychological -- his work poses. This book gathers a group of US- and Africa-based scholars, many of whom are long-time Mudimbe collaborators and colleagues, who use the questions posed, the critiques and insights offered and the paradigms constructed by Mudimbe's oeuvre to understand the implication -- and, in some instances, the application -- of Mudimbe's work in our moment.--Provided by publisher
