- W2184850949 abstract "In Africa, like elsewhere, indigenous knowledge systems (IKSs) were used to administer peace, harmony, and order amongst the people and their physical environment. However, with the advent of colonialism in Africa, IKSs were not only marginalized, but demonized leaving their potentials for establishing and maintaining a moral, virtuous society, unexploited. It is in this light that this paper argues for a correction to the vestiges of colonialism, neo-colonialism, and the western gaze that demonized African IKSs and posed fatal challenges to their [IKSs] potentials in improving African societies socially, economically, and morally. The paper adopts Zimbabwe and Mozambique as case studies in showing the beauty of the undiluted African indigenous knowledge systems and their potential for establishing a moral, virtuous society. To this end, the paper argues that Africa, today, is in the grips of high crime rates, serious moral decadence, and other calamities because of the marginalization, false, and pejorative label attached to the African IKSs. This takes the paper to another level where it criticizes, dismantles, and challenges the inherited colonial legacies, which have morally and socially injured many African societies." @default.
