Driven by an intercultural vision and comparative research, this is the first volume to bring together African and Western philosophical approaches to current issues in language, logic, metaphysics and ethics.

Featuring contributions from an international line up of scholars across four continents including leading contemporary African philosophers, and new work from Saul Kripke in collaboration with Romina Padro, these chapters cover a wide range of topics set out in three parts. They advance our understanding of the linguistic, logical, metaphysical and ethical contributions of African philosophical thought in comparison with Western traditions, fostering discussion about how they relate, and are distinct, from one another.

Reinvigorating the debate in cross-cultural and global philosophy, this is a groundbreaking resource for any scholar or student of each sub-discipline.
