This collection of essays honours the intellectual legacy of Valentin 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 scholars who use the questions posed, the critiques and insights offered and the paradigms constructed by Mudimbe's oeuvre to understand the implication of Mudimbe's work.
