A Decolonial Analysis of Africa’s Agency and Positionality on Climate Change
Climate change is a global phenomenon that requires collective intervention if humanity is to survive its catastrophic effects. The effects of climate change are palpable the world over, particularly in the rising of temperatures and sea levels and the snow melt and heavy rains that cause severe flooding followed by drought. It has been argued that climate change is a result, or consequence, of a lack of environmental awareness that is anthropoge…
The securitization of African immigrants in South Africa
Securitization of immigrants is the framing of immigrants as security threats that need to be curbed, thwarted and eliminated. Yet immigration is only but a small segment of migration, which is necessary for economic growth. Migration is an organic phenomenon that is as old as humanity itself. It happens within national borders, often referred to as internal migration, or even internal displacement at times. When migration happens in the internat…
Kenya’s Infrastructural Question
Kenya’s Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), the country’s largest infrastructure project since its 1963 independence, was initially seen as a mutually advantageous endeavour for both Kenya and China. For China, the SGR complemented its Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), while President Uhuru Kenyatta viewed it as a monumental infrastructure development that would solidify his legacy. This article critically assesses Kenyatta’s infrastructure legacy, with …
The implications of bifurcated citizenship and access to land in Africa
The history of colonialism has impacted negatively on violent conflicts in Africa. The DRC conflict remains one of the violent and protracted conflicts the world has ever come across. Although extensive research is well-documented regarding the conflict, concerted efforts to find a sustainable and lasting peace remain a huge conundrum. Access to land and bifurcated citizenship has had serious implications in the escalation of the conflict. This i…
The Politics and Feasibility of Free Decolonial Education in South Africa
The Global Covid-19 Pandemic
The politics of science, or better still, the political science of global politics is what the world is battling, concerning the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, today. Whereas scientific disciplines such as virology and epidemiology would usually take centre stage when an outbreak such as Covid-19 strikes, and now owing to the vacuum that has been created by conflicting and contradictory information from health experts on Covid-19, global health…
Dynamising Liberation Movements in Southern Africa
The book grapples with reconciling the ideological, policy and implementation bankruptcy of former liberation movements in Southern Africa especially as it applies to their incumbency of national government in their respective domains. The main thesis of the book is that prior to ascending to national government, these liberation movements seemed to have the relevant ideological muscle that reflected the axiology of their times, especially South …
Unmasking the Diversionary Global Imperial Designs in the Invasion of Libya in 2011, ten years on, and counting
In this article, I analyse the machinations of Western modernity that were manifested in the 2011 Arab Spring protests in Libya. The principal objective of the paper is three-pronged. Firstly, I critically observe the reasons for the uprisings in Libya. Secondly, I critically analyse the Libyan government’s response to the protests. Lastly, I focus on the responses of the NATO-led so-called international community. The article employs a decolonia…
The Asymmetry, Disparity, Inconsistency, and Double Standards of Global Coloniality
The article analyses the Arab Spring protests that started in Tunisia in 2010 and spread into more than thirteen other countries across two continents. Of the more than thirteen countries affected by the Arab Spring, only four countries are analysed: Tunisia, Egypt, Sudan, and Libya. The principal objectives of this article are threefold. Firstly, the article critically explores the reasons for the uprisings in the four countries that form part o…
