African politics and ethicsexploring new dimensions /[electronic resource] :by Munyaradzi Felix Murove. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2020. - vii, 173 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1. African Ethics -- Chapter 2. Ethical Politics in the Context of African Traditional Religion -- Chapter 3. African Ethics and the Post-Colonial Politics of Tradition -- Chapter 4. The Predominance of Tradition and African Identity -- Chapter 5. African Traditional Humanism and the Ethic of Collectivism -- Chapter 6. Regional Integration and the Ethic of Co-operation in post-Colonial Africa -- Chapter 7. African Traditional Resources for Ethical Leadership -- Epilogue.

In this book, Munyaradzi Felix Murove explores African traditional ethical resources for African politics. Arguing that African ethics is integral to African post-colonial political contentious discourse, Murove invites the reader to reflect on various problematic political issues in post-colonial Africa and how African ethics has been applied in these situations. Starting with a succinct discussion of the scope of African ethics, he discusses how African ethical values have been applied by post-colonial politicians in the reconstruction of their societies. Further, Murove looks critically at the issue of African poverty and how the ethic of regional integration and economic cooperation among post-colonial African nation-states has been instrumental to efforts aimed at overcoming the scourge of poverty. The main question this book seeks to answer is: Are African traditional ethical values a panacea to modern African political problems?
