Comprehensively covers Thomas Sankara's leadership and revolutionary philosophy and applies the past lessons to recent coups in Africa.
Reflecting critically on the ideas and works of Thomas Sankara, Leshoele and the contributors apply the Sankarist experience to recent re-emergence of coups in Africa and the Sahel as a whole.
Examining governance and leadership from an Afrocentric perspective, this book interrogates the causes of recent military and constitutional coups and their impacts on democratic consolidation. Through a Pan-Africanist and Afrocentric reading of the Sankarian legacy, this book provides ideas for reclaiming and reinvigorating African agency, and forging collaborations beyond borders.
This volume answers the call for African voices on African challenges.
