African Philosophy in Ghana: Contributions to Global Ethical Debates
Abstract
African philosophy in Ghana has a rich history of contributions to ethical debates, reflecting its unique cultural context and philosophical traditions. Qualitative research methods were employed, including semi-structured interviews with philosophers and ethicists, as well as an examination of philosophical texts from various schools of thought. A notable theme emerging from the analysis is the emphasis on communal responsibility and intergenerational ethics in contemporary discussions, reflecting a deep-rooted tradition in Ghanaian philosophy.
