Abstract

Post-colonial African philosophy in Egypt explores the evolution of philosophical thought under colonial influence and its subsequent development towards self-determination. No empirical data is utilised; instead, an analytical approach involving conceptual analysis and historical research of philosophical texts from various periods is employed. Theoretical evolution dynamics reveal that while Egypt's post-colonial philosophy is influenced by both traditional African philosophies and contemporary global ideas, it predominantly focuses on reconciling these influences with indigenous values and knowledge systems. Further research could benefit from a comparative analysis of philosophical developments in other post-colonial African contexts to better understand the universal patterns of philosophical evolution.
