The problem of the relevance of African philosophy to development in Africa is topical given that the modern African philosopher is faced with all sorts of problems arising from within and outside his discipline. Concerns about fashioning methods to confront Africa's existential challenges raise questions about cultural emancipation and human survival and highlights technical and moral concerns about academic philosophy as a late -comer in Africa. There are real consequences of an inherited foreign colonial legacy and the seemingly abstract nature of a discipline that needs to showcase its utility. Such gaps obstruct endogenous perspectives for solutions to African problems. We analyze the role of philosophy both as an academic field and as a thought system in African development concerns: We conceptualize this issue in terms of a discourse on intellectual values which include conceptual decolonization and human values, social order and ethical behaviour and science and technology in Africa.

Afrikadagi falsafaning Afrikadagi taraqqiyoti uchun dolzarbligi dolzarb bo'lgan Afrikalik faylasuf o'z intizomida va tashqarisida paydo bo'ladigan har qanday muammolarga duch kelganligi sababli dolzarbdir. Afrikaning mavjud muammolariga qarshi kurash usullarini ishlab chiqish bilan bog'liq bo'lgan tashvish madaniy ozodlik va odamlarning omon qolishiga oid savollar tug'diradi, shuningdek, Afrikaga kech kelgan ilmiy falsafa bilan bog'liq texnik va ma'naviy muammolarni ta'kidlaydi. Meros qilib olingan chet el mustamlakasi merosining va uning foydasini ko'rsatishi kerak bo'lgan intizomning mavhum tabiatning haqiqiy natijalari mavjud. Bunday kamchiliklar Afrika muammolarini hal qilishning endojen istiqboliga to'sqinlik qiladi. Biz falsafani akademik soha sifatida va Afrikaning rivojlanishida fikrlash tizimi sifatida tahlil qilamiz: bu masalani kontseptual dekolonizatsiya va insoniy qadriyatlar, ijtimoiy tartib va axloqiy xattiharakatlar, fan va texnologiya kabi intellektual qadriyatlar haqida gapirish nuqtai nazaridan ko'rib chiqamiz.

Проблема африканской философии для развития Африки является актуальной, учитывая, что современный африканский философ сталкивается со всевозможными проблемами, возникающими внутри и вне его дисциплины. Озабоченность, связанная с разработкой методов противодействия экзистенциальным вызовам Африки, ставит вопросы о культурном освобождении и выживании человека, а также подчеркивает технические и моральные проблемы, связанные с академической философией, опоздавшей в Африку. Существуют реальные последствия иностранного колониального наследия и, казалось бы, абстрактный характер дисциплины, которая должна продемонстрировать ее полезность. Такие пробелы затрудняют эндогенные перспективы решения африканских проблем. Мы анализируем роль философии как академического поля и как системы мышления в вопросах развития Африки: мы рассматриваем этот вопрос с точки зрепия дискурса об интеллектуальных ценностях, которые включают концептуальную деколонизацию и человеческие ценности, социальный порядок и этическое поведение, а также науку и технику.
