Cultural studies e comunicazione performativa africana

Antonino Romano

The cultural anthropological turning point of the Frankfurt School has enabled a broad insight into African philosophical and communicational issues that guide educational and socio-political action. The epistemological turn of African philosophy begins with the awareness of the plight of Muntu, reified by the same cultural anthropology that was able to champion and liberate «primitive» people. Fanon, Eboussi-Boulaga, Houtondji and many other African philosophers have beaten the internal path to African cultures, from the pro-dramatic African texts, helping them to acquire authentic African philosophical cognitive tools and methods that allow free thinking and make communication possible for a better performative right to global Citizenship.
