Reviews

"In this inspiring and richly textured book, the author skillfully and critically traces the intellectual origins of Thabo Mbeki's notion of the 'African Renaissance.' Its domestic articulations and continental expressions are analysed with philosophical and normative commitment rarely found in other reflections on the subject. This book thus constitutes a welcome and refreshing appraisal and is an elegant contribution to the changing discourse on Africa."
