dc.description	This study is the outcome of a research project that started in 2001, culminating in three months of fieldwork in Nairobi in 2004. Because of its relative stability Nairobi has quite a number of departments of religious studies and schools of theology, as well as headquarters of continental ecclesiastic organisations (ecumenical, evangelical and African instituted). The exception is the Catholic one, which is based in Accra. Our sources are the texts that are produced and reproduced by these institutions, as well as the academic discourses that are conducted there. One of the aims of the fieldwork was to upgrade my knowledge of African philosophy – a field that I have neglected in the past, I must admit, because of my preoccupation with anthropological research. I found recent developments in African philosophy very promising, drawing a true picture of Africa. That is why the reader will find more philosophical insights in this book than in my previous publications.	-
