Authors

Abstract

The concept of “the invention of Africa” captivates the continent’s attributed characteristics attributed to Western endeavors focusing on “unhistorical” Africa, slavery, colonization, post-coloniality, poverty, cooperation, and underdevelopment. Today, a persisting interrogation of the continent’s present and future seeks to discover how African leaders have moved people toward their well-being. The text produces a coherent narrative about African political leaders’ failure to innovate and “reinvent” the continent for responsible access to the common good and globalization.
