Ilow realistic is it to expect translation to render the world intelligible in a context shaped by different historical trajectories and experiences? Can we rely on human universals to translate through the unique and specific webs of meaning that languages represent? If knowledge production is a kind of translation, then it is fair to assume that the possibility of translation has largely rested on the idea that Western experience is the repository of these human universais against the background of which different human experiences can be rendered intelligible. The problem with this assumption, however, is that there are limits to Western claims to universalism, mainly because these claims were at the service of the desire to justify imperial expansion. This book addresses issues arising from these claims to universalism in the process of producing knowledge about diverse African social realities. It shows that the idea of knowledge production as translation can be usefully deployed to inquire into how knowledge of Africa translates into an imperial attempt at changing local norms, institutions and spiritual values. Translation, in this sense, is the normalization of meanings issuing from a load historical experience claiming to be universal. The task of producing knowledge of African social reidities cimnol be adequately addressed without a prior critical engagement with how translat ion has come to shape our ways of rendering Africa intelligible. Jean-Bemard Ouédraogo is Professor of Sociology at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS), Paris, and
