African spirituality and ethicsdecolonising a false dichotomy /[electronic resource] :by Munyaradzi Felix Murove. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2023. - vii, 141 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1 Introduction -- 2 The Politicization of Spirituality in Southern Africa -- 3 Essentials of African Spirituality -- 4 A Symbiotic Relationship Between African Spirituality and Ethics -- 5 African Spirituality as the Foundation for a Relational Ethic -- 6 African Communitarian Ethics and Spirituality -- 7 Healing in African Spirituality and Ethics.

This book explores the symbiotic relationship that exists between African spirituality and ethics. Felix Murove discusses how these two concepts are entwined, and illustrates how they play a role in applied ethical issues. He argues that the general understanding of spirituality in Africa stems from Christianity, which has had a negative impact on African indigenous spirituality. The conceptual tools that run throughout the book are considerably Afro-centric, a methodological strategy which inevitably requires the reader to adopt some prior willingness to learn these Afro-centric concepts without easily resorting to western Christian and philosophical categories of thought. The book advocates for an Afro-centric conceptualization of spirituality and ethics, and encourages the reader to adopt a more holistic approach to African spirituality. Munyaradzi Felix Murove is a research associate at the University of the Free State, South Africa.
