Philosophy and the Nigerian Society

Philosophy and the Nigerian Society presents well-researched philosophical papers on themes that focus on politics, economy, ethics, identity, development, and other pertinent issues that are crucial for the advancement of the Nigerian society and by extension, the African continent. It is a collection of articles from African scholars which analyze the present-day problems and try to proffer meaningful solutions. The essays in the present collection represent painstaking intellectual attempts to address the political problems, dysfunctional legal system, social inequality, faulty educational system, poor use of reason, uncritical adoption of foreign models and inauthentic identity that have made proper integral development of the Nigerian society to remain elusive. Given the profound insight and intellectual rigour that are evident in these essays, Philosophy and the Nigerian Society offers a collection of scientific works that will be of great interest to researchers, lecturers and students in the humanities, national development planners and indeed anyone who has a genuine interest in an intellectual engagement with the Nigerian society.
