Summary: | African ancient traditions suffered a major historical change as a result of colonization. Several decades after decolonization and access to independence, what is the situation and place of the African culture in Africa and outside Africa? Does African culture perpetuate effectively today? What are the obstacles to the transmission of African culture to our children? What are the beliefs or elements that have influenced the transmission of our culture after the period of independence? Roughly, what is left of our culture in the twenty-first century? We are going to focus on Côte d´Ivoire case study, basing our analysis on an analytical reading of contemporary society since 1960, year of the independence of our country. |
