Identities, Exclusionism and Politics in Africa
Identities, Exclusionism and Politics in Africa
In Africa, the youth play a major role both as activists and participants in cultural life and politics. Framed around the concepts of conservatisms and radicalisms, this special issue references various African contexts to explore the intersections of youthhood, identities, cultural practices, politics, struggle narratives, education, and marginalisation, and the role young people play in the political process. To this end, articles in this special issue collectively relate to and recount the politics and practices of neoliberalism, capitalism, globalisation, poverty, violence, elections, resource allocation, disability, social justice, and identity re-constitution.
