"This book examines the former Zambian President Kenneth Kaunda's political philosophy and practice, and considers the conflicting views of the man and his policies - moralist or collaborator with South Africa, practitioner of realpolitik or promoter of peace. The author compares Kaunda with Mugabe, and assesses their respective contribution to the fight against apartheid in South Africa as well as the general effect of their policies on the region. The author also considers the moves towards multi-party democracy in Zambia which eventually led to Kaunda's removal from office."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

This book looks at Zambian Humanism from 1964 to 1991. Dr. Kenneth David Kaunda regarded it as Christian Humanism. This philosophy arose from the background of Colonialism, where Africans were not respected by the minority white populace. With his Christian background and upbringing, Kaunda saw this to be wrong. He understood very well that we all created in the image of God and have equal rights. This understanding made kaunda to embark on Christian Humanism that placed man at the centre of all activities. Hence the philosophy of Christian Humanism was born. After Kaunda was defeated by Chiluba in 1991, this philosophy of humanism was abandoned. This book analyse the political theology of KK which is commonly called Zambian Humanism.
For most of its history, the African continent has witnessed momentous political change, remarkable philosophical innovation, and the complex cross-fertilization of ideologies and belief systems. This definitive study surveys the concepts, values, and historical upheavals that have shaped African political systems from the ancient period to the postcolonial era and beyond. Beginning with the emergence of indigenous political institutions, it traces the most important developments in African history, including the Africanization of Islam, liberal democratic movements, socialism, Pan-Africanism, and Africanist-Populist resistance to the neoliberal world order. The result is an invaluable resource on a region too often ignored in the history of political thought.
