Produktbeschreibung

Blacology: Advancing African-Centered Scholarship is an academic exploration into the philosophical, cultural, and intellectual foundation of Blacology as conceived and advanced by Prof. Amos M. D. Sirleaf. The book is both a celebration and a critical inquiry into the discipline's central ideasits reclamation of African epistemologies, its challenge to Western-dominated paradigms of knowledge, and its vision for restoring African consciousness and agency in the modern world.

The text begins by tracing the historical emergence of Blacology, situating it within broader traditions of Pan-Africanism, Afrocentric thought, and postcolonial scholarship. It highlights Sirleaf's pioneering efforts to construct an independent academic discipline grounded in African-centered values, community ethics, and indigenous systems of knowledge production. Through detailed exposition and scholarly critique, the book guides readers to understand Blacology as more than a philosophyit is a framework for intellectual liberation, social transformation, and cultural renewal.

As the chapters unfold, readers are invited to engage critically with Sirleaf's writings, examining the theoretical coherence, methodological approaches, and educational applications of Blacology. The book also challenges the academic community to take part in shaping the discipline's evolution through open critique, empirical inquiry, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Each section builds upon the premise that Blacology's power lies in its capacity to articulate African identity, thought, and creativity in global intellectual discourse.

Ultimately, Blacology: Advancing African-Centered Scholarship serves as a bridge between Prof. Sirleaf's visionary work and contemporary academic practice. It seeks to affirm Blacology's rightful place within the world of scholarship while inviting a new generation of researchers, educators, and students to refine, expand, and apply its principles. The result is a work that not only honors a trailblazing scholar but also opens new paths toward epistemic justice and the reclamation of African intellectual sovereignty.
