Philosophy is learned from Masters, not from Teachers Antonio Xavier Tomo

The present book discusses pressing issues of the daily life of citizens. The themes such as: Politics, Ethics, Education, Epistemology and Culture are part of this book. In politics, attention is drawn to the fact that not all social life is considered political. In the ethical perspective, the contribution of ethics in the public servant and the contribution of ubuntu ethics in the administrative process are discussed. With regard to education, the text argues that philosophical training should be in charge of the masters. On the epistemological axis, the text draws attention to the possibility of African philosophy not to bow down to Western philosophy. The decolonization of the mind is fundamental, so that Africans can find their own way to solve their problems. The theme on culture is the last one discussed in the book. This theme was constructed in an intercultural perspective.
