Community and Trinity in Africa recasts the African tradition of
community from a theological perspective. Ibrahim S. Bitrus
explains the new Trinitarian hermeneutics of God as the fundamental
framework for constructing an authentic African tradition of
community. The book explores the tripartite structural evils of the
patriarchal tradition, the Big Man/Woman syndrome, and
ethnic-religious nepotism, which distort the African tradition of
community. It analyzes Trinitarian proposals that liberate the
distorted African tradition of community and concludes that an
authentic African tradition of community is one that embodies
individuality without libertarian individualism, communality
without patriarchy, and mutual multi-ethnic and religious relations
without nepotism and domination. Arguing that the communion of the
Triune God is not a moral ideal, but a gift for restructuring the
church and society, this book is an essential read for scholars of
African Christianity and Christian theology.
