WINNER OF THE FRANTZ FANON OUTSTANDING BOOK AWARD 2019
Excerpts from the Award.

… This is a brilliant book by a genuine scholar and intellectual. Erudite, thoughtful and productively critical, it genuinely pushes our thinking forward to a reassessment of a number of core concerns of primary interest to those who wish to imagine a different world beyond current capitalist society….

….This book deserves the Fanon award. It is of genuine international standing and simultaneously puts African philosophy back to where it belongs, namely in conversation with current high quality worldwide philosophical thought to whose concerns it offers genuinely original and innovative contributions. …

This book deserves the Fanon award for many reasons…. The text is a sober intervention in political theory from the global south—specifically, west African political thought as a point of departure into debates on ambivalences plaguing contemporary left political theory. It addresses the unfortunate tendency to treat key theoretical concepts such as universality and individuality as imports into the African context instead of part of the already critical discourses of African societies. … It is a much-needed text in contemporary political philosophy written by a giant in African political thought (as well as a giant in Fanon Studies)….
'This is a perceptive and brilliant work. Each chapter is powerful and rich and will be read over and over. We are blessed (with apologies to Armah) that Sekyi-Otu has, upon his retirement, returned to his native land – Ghana – and from that new ground, found a new and seemingly boundless energy to create a book that offers such profound insights into a set of the critical questions of our time.'—Nigel Gibson, New Frame
'Left Universalism, Africacentric Essays provides a powerfulcritique that Africacentrism in no way needs to reject universalism. Indeed, the danger that Ato Sekyi-Otu points to in his original book is that we reduce Afrocentrism to ethnophilosophy and, therefore, reduce its range as if it were only a local philosophical perspective. This is a well-argued and clearly written defense of universalism without in any way undermining his powerful critique of eurocentrism. It will be an important book in many diverse fields from anthropology, sociology, and political science, to key departments in the humanities such as comparative literature and philosophy.'—Drucilla Cornell, Emeritus Professor of Comparative Literature, and Gender Studies, Rutgers University
'Ato Sekyi-Otu's Left Universalism, Africacentric Essays is that rare intellectual gift-offering that one encounters between long gaps: elegant in conception, astute in its execution, and proffering some serious revisions to the entire landscape of African thought. His propositions on the relevance of a left universalism for conceptualizing an ethics of African identity are going to set the terms of the debate not just in philosophy but well beyond. It is superb.'—Ato Quayson, author of Oxford Street, Accra: City Life and the Itineraries of Transnationalism
'This book is a much-needed text in contemporary political philosophy written by a giant in African political thought. It addresses the unfortunate tendency to treat key theoretical concepts such as universality and individuality as imports into the African context instead of part of the already critical discourses of African societies. Through skillful analysis and a sober understanding of theory as addressing reality, Ato Sekyi-Otu takes on many classic tropes of postmodern political theory and avowed anti-liberalism. He brings to the fore core insights of revolutionary theories of social change in which the outrage at degradation entails antidotes of dignity, respect, and transformation of social and material conditions that impede their potential. Here, political science meets philosophy, literature, sociology, history, and more, because, as should be evident, none alone could address the gravity and scope of this problem without ignoring disciplinary shortcomings. Disciplinary nationalism falls sway to reality, as it should. I expect this work to be, as it were, a classic of contemporary political theory.'—Lewis R. Gordon, Honorary President of the Global Center for Advanced Studies and author of Existentia Africana
'In Left Universalism, Africacentric EssaysAto Sekyi-Otu, long-admired for his book Fanon’s Dialectic of Experience, presents a spirited defense of a universalism and an individualism that, he argues, escapes current critiques. Whether one agrees with him or not, there is no mistaking the commitment, the learning, and the compassion that drives the author throughout this volume. The profound philosophical meditation on his fellow Ghanaian, Ayi Kwei Armah, is a significant contribution to African philosophy in its own right.'—Robert Bernasconi, Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Philosophy, Penn State University

Liberalism without Perfection

Given the maturity of language and gender as afield of study, a series devoted to it is long overdue and most welcome. The maturity of the field is reflected in the scope of the first volume on identity formation and in its engagement with theory. . .A valuable and engaging feature of the book is that, at the same time as it contributes to the consolidation of new theoretical positions, it does not lose touch with earlier 'moments' in the field of language and
gender. . .This is an impressive collection, which makes a useful contribution to the reworking of language and gender studies. It is particularly successful in bringing recent feminist theory to bear on earlier feminist and pre-feminist linguistics, and in continuing to bring together research on 'bad
subjects'?
