For a long time, African Studies as a discipline has been spearheaded by
academies and institutions in the Global North. This puts African Studies on
t he continent at a crossroads of makingehoices on whether such a discipline can
he legitimately accepted as an epistemological discipline seeking objectivity
and truth about Africa and the African peoples or a discipline meant to
perpetuate the North s hegemonic socio-economic, political and epistemic
control over Africa. The compound question that immediately arises is: Who
should produce what and which space should African Studies occupy in the
academy both of the North and of the South? Confronted by such a question,
one wonders whether the existence of African Studies Centres in the Global
North academies open opportunities for critical thinking on Africa or it opens
possibilities for the emergence of the same discipline in Africa as a fertile space
for trans-disciplinary debate. While approaches critical for the development
of African Studies are pervasive in African universities through fields such as
cultural studies, social anthropology, history, sociology, indigenous knowledge
studies and African philosophy, the discipline of African Studies though
critical to Africa is rarely practised as such in the African academy and its
future on the continent remains bleak. African Studies in the Academy is a
testimony that if honestly and objectively practised, the crossroads position
of African Studies as a discipline makes it a fertile ground for generating and
testing new approaches critical for researching and understanding Africa. It
also challenges Africa to seriously consider assuming its legitimate position
to champion African Studies from wit hin. These issues are at the heart of the
present volume.
