Book Description
" Dogme et inculturation en Afrique est un ouvrage original qui mérite toute notre attention, bien au-delà du public africain. Il a l'avantage de nous montrer que les problèmes brûlants posés aujourd'hui par l'inculturation du langage chrétien dans la diversité des cultures nous renvoient aux questions radicales sur la notion de dogme, posées par les modernistes, il y a déjà un siècle. (...) Quel système philosophique peut être assumé par le langage dogmatique ? Comment faire en sorte que la vérité dogmatique soit une vérité vivifiante ? Comment voir dans la pratique chrétienne elle-même un lieu de sens et favoriser une réinterprétation créatrice du message chrétien ? Quel est le lien entre le véhicule culturel d'une époque et le contenu objectif des énoncés de la foi ? C'est sur la base d'une connaissance approfondie des questions complexes soulevées par les représentants du Modernisme, surtout par E. Le Roy, que L. Santedi Kinkupu propose sa vision de l'inculturation du christianisme en Afrique, ce qu'il appelle volontiers une théologie de l'invention. Parmi tous les travaux déjà existants sur l'inculturation, c'est ce qui fait le prix et l'originalité de sa contribution. (...) On lira les propositions nuancées du théologien de Kinshasa. À partir de la réalité complexe de l'Afrique qu'il habite intellectuellement et existentiellement, il a élaboré une théologie de l'inculturation qui a une portée universelle pour toute l'Eglise au seuil du troisième millénaire. Il a le mérite de traiter avec rigueur la question délicate de l'inculturation du dogme. " C. Geffré, in Préface de l'ouvrage.

Religion, Colonization and Decolonization in Congo, 1885-1960. Religion, colonisation et décolonisation au Congo, 1885-1960
Author: Vincent Viaene
Publisher: Leuven University Press
ISBN: 9462701423
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
Religion in today’s Democratic Republic of Congo has many faces: from the overflowing seminaries and Marian shrines of the Catholic Church to the Islamic brotherhoods, from the healers of Kimban-guism to the televangelism of the booming Pentecostalist churches in the great cities, from the Orthodox communities of Kasai to the ‘invisible’ Mai Mai warriors in the brousse of Kivu. During the colonial period religion was no less central to people’s lives than it is today. More surprisingly, behind the seemingly smooth facade of missions linked closely to imperial power, faith and worship were already marked by diversity and dynamism, tying the Congo into broader African and global movements. The contributions in this book provide insight into the multifaceted history of the interaction between religion and colonization. The authors outline the institutional political framework, and focus on the challenge that old and new forms of slavery entailed for the missions. The atrocities committed at the time of the Congo Free State became an existential question for young Christian communities. In the Belgian Congo after 1908, more structural forms of colonial violence remained a key issue marking religious experiences. And yet, religion also acted as a bridge. The authors emphasize the role intermediaries such as catechists or medical assistants played in the African “appropriation” of Christianity. They examine the complex interaction with indigenous religious beliefs and practices, and zoom in on the part religions played in the independence movement, as well as on their reaction to independence itself. Coming at a moment when Belgium confronts its colonial past, this volume provides a timely reassessment of religion as a key factor.

Pan-Africanism: Political Philosophy and Socio-Economic Anthropology for African Liberation and Governance
Author: Kini-Yen Kinni
Publisher: African Books Collective
ISBN: 9956762083
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 582
Book Description
This Book is the outcome of a long project begun thirty years ago. It is a book on the makings of pan-Africanism through the predicaments of being black in a world dominated by being white. The book is a tribute and celebration of the efforts of the African-American and African-Caribbean Diaspora who took the initiative and the audacity to fight and liberate themselves from the shackles of slavery. It is also a celebration of those Africans who in their own way carried the torch of inspiration and resilience to save and reconstruct the Free Humanism of Africa. As a story of the rise from the shackles of slavery and poverty to the summit of Victors of their Renaissance Identity and Self-Determination as a People, the book is the story of African refusal to celebrate victimhood. The book also situates women as central actors in the Pan-African project, which is often presented as an exclusively masculine endeavour. It introduces a balanced gender approach and diagnosis of the Women actors of Pan-Africanism which was very much lacking. The problem of balkanisation of Africa on post-colonial affiliations and colonial linguistic lines has taken its toll on Africas building of its common identity and personality. The result is that Africans are more remote to each other in their pigeon-hole-nation-states which put more restrictions for African inter-mobility, coupled by education and cultural affiliations, the communication and transportation and trading networks which are still tied more to their colonial masters than among themselves. This book looks into the problem of the new wave of Pan-Africanism and what strategies that can be proposed for a more participatory Pan-Africanism inspired by the everyday realities of African masses at home and in the diaspora. This book is the first book of its kind that gives a comprehensive and multidimensional coverage of Pan-Africanism. It is a very timely and vital compendium.
