Negotiating Identities in Contemporary Africa: Gender, Religion,
and Ethno-cultural Identities explores the changing dynamics of
identities in Africa, with a focus on gender, ethno-cultural, and
religious identity. Toyin Falola and Emmanuel M. Mbah argue that
because identity defines who we are as individuals or groups,
studies on African identities must focus on understanding the
changing dynamics in the socio-economic and political spheres in
the continent. These chapters cover subjects such as women’s
career identity, gender roles and knowledge, childlessness,
ethnocentrism and democracy, cultural identity through theater,
Black identity in the diaspora, and diasporic consciousness. Using
existing scholarship, the chapters in this edited volume challenge
our understanding of what identity entails and provide new
discussions on the hitherto politicized historiography of some
identities in Africa.
