Описание: This book addresses current and pertinent issues in adult, community, and lifelong education and development presenting a distinctive and timely focus on Africa. Drawing from a variety of theoretical, methodological, and personal experiences from astute researchers from different parts of the continent, this book re-conceptualises adult, community and lifelong education from a western perspective to a more Afrocentric and indigenous approach to understanding and solving problems in the field. It attempts to fill that gap by placing emphasis on the history of adult, lifelong and community education, its organization and management, and the philosophical and socioeconomic context within which adult, community and lifelong education is provided. This edited book is a comprehensive collection of cutting edge research and analyses of various concepts in the field and offers in-depth explanations from diverse viewpoints. For ease of reference, this book is organized into 17 chapters with each chapter covering a topical issue in a diverse, multifaceted field. All the chapters were subjected to a rigorous review process. Firstly, by the editors before those that met the initial pre-screening were sent to two other reviewers. These steps were taken to ensure that the chapters were within the scope of the book as well as meeting the set standards. The submissions which did not meet the set standards and/or did not fall within the scope of the book were rejected. The ones that were recommended for inclusion by the reviewers were sent to the authors to correct and resubmit. The corrected chapters from the authors were put together as the manuscript which was submitted to an accredited language editor for editing before finally submitting to the publisher. The contributions are on five African countries with all the contributors from Africa. Consequently, this book differs from many publications about African countries written by non-Africans." Although all the chapters focus on African countries, the scholarly and rigorous discussion by the authors may appeal to international audiences in the field of adult, lifelong and community education.

Описание:
Ama Ata Aidoo is one of the best-known African writers today. Spanning three decades of work, the poems in this collection address themes of colonialism, independence, motherhood, and gender in intimate, personal ways alongside commentary on broader social issues. After the Ceremonies is arranged in three parts: new and uncollected poems, some of which Aidoo calls “misplaced or downright lost”; selections from Aidoo’s An Angry Letter in January and Other Poems; and selections from Someone Talking to Sometime.
Although Aidoo is best known for her novels Changes: A Love Story and Our Sister Killjoy, which are widely read in women’s literature courses, and her plays The Dilemma of a Ghost and Anowa, which are read and performed all over the world, her prowess as a poet shines in this collection.

Описание:
The book explores how the rhetorical function of «b??» («shame») and its cognates within twelve Individual Lament Psalms (ILP) reflect persuasive responses aimed at enhancing the relational spirituality of the psalmist. It argues that the Hebrew terminology of «b??» is used as a response to enhance a spirituality of relatedness. The author argues that the plea for positive shame is to enhance positive spirituality that leads to changes of attitude, repentance, faithfulness, self-knowledge, and wholeness. Negative shame influences negative spirituality that leads to destruction and unworthiness. The volume reflects African Christian spirituality elucidating the psalmist’s perception of positive shame.

Описание:
In Slavery Unseen, Lamonte Aidoo upends the narrative of Brazil as a racial democracy, showing how the myth of racial democracy elides the history of sexual violence, patriarchal terror, and exploitation of slaves. Drawing on sources ranging from inquisition trial documents to travel accounts and literature, Aidoo demonstrates how interracial and same-sex sexual violence operated as a key mechanism of the production and perpetuation of slavery as well as racial and gender inequality. The myth of racial democracy, Aidoo contends, does not stem from or reflect racial progress; rather, it is an antiblack apparatus that upholds and protects the heteronormative white patriarchy throughout Brazil's past and on into the present.

Описание: The book explores how African Christians in Ghana can think eco-theologically about the nexus of mining, waste pollution, water pollution, and land degradation. In 2017, the government of Ghana banned illegal mining and declared war against any activity that does not complement environmental protection and conservation of natural resources. The Christian church needs academic resources to support the campaign against the destruction of the land, water bodies, and environment. The papers presented generate theological imaginations in shaping the political campaign against the destruction of the land and the environment. Reflection on areas related to the theme includes: ""The Concept of Land in the Bible""; ""The Christian Church and the Galamsey Menace in West Africa""; ""The Fulani Cattle Headsmen and Care for the Land""; ""The Bible and the Environment: Towards an Agenda for Eco-theology in African Theological Institutions""; ""Stewardship of the Land""; ""The Menace of Mining in Ghana""; ""Destruction of Water Bodies in Ghana""; and ""The Menace of Plastic Waste in Ghana."" This volume will serve as a textbook for theological students, the church, and other governmental agencies.
