African Feminist Individuation
View through CrossRef
Abstract: This essay explores the relevance of Jungian individuation within African feminist political philosophy. It examines the rise of populism in Africa and the persistent debate between individualism and communitarianism, which often distracts from addressing patriarchy. By integrating Jungian individuation with African feminism and Yoruba cosmology, a novel approach is proposed to transcend this dualism. The essay critiques the rise of Populist Anti-Western Nativism (PAWN), highlighting its detrimental impact on African feminist efforts and its promotion of reactionary, patriarchal, and populist beliefs. Through a personal journey of individuation, the essay illustrates how this process can foster both individual autonomy and community well-being. Emphasizing the importance of "being" and "becoming", the essay argues that individuation can help African feminists navigate the complex space between cultural solidarity and critique, ultimately advancing a more profound and transformative African feminist politics.
