An attempt to recapture the liberation philosophy of Kwame Nkrumah, first prime minister of Ghana. Owusu seeks to define a theoretical basis on which a modern socio-political and ethical structure for Ghana can be built and offers a paradigm for developing a role of advocacy to the Ghanaian religious edifice. He also strives to recapitulate Ghana's self-dignity, self-realisation and self-subsistence by highlighting the essential assumptions, dimensions and specificities of African personhood.

This study critically synthesizes and analyses the relationship between Kwame Nkrumah's politico-cultural philosophy and policies as an African-centered paradigm for the post-independence African revolution. It also argues for the relevance of his theories and politics in today's Africa.

A new biography of Ghana’s Kwame Nkrumah, one of the most influential political figures in twentieth-century African history. As the first prime minister and president of the West African state of Ghana, Kwame Nkrumah helped shape the global narrative of African decolonization. After leading Ghana to independence in 1957, Nkrumah articulated a political vision that aimed to free the country and the continent—politically, socially, economically, and culturally—from the vestiges of European colonial rule, laying the groundwork for a future in which Africans had a voice as equals on the international stage. Nkrumah spent his childhood in the maturing Gold Coast colonial state. During the interwar and wartime periods he was studying in the United States. He emerged in the postwar era as one of the foremost activists behind the 1945 Manchester Pan-African Congress and the demand for an immediate end to colonial rule. Jeffrey Ahlman’s biography plots Nkrumah’s life across several intersecting networks: colonial, postcolonial, diasporic, national, Cold War, and pan-African. In these contexts, Ahlman portrays Nkrumah not only as an influential political leader and thinker but also as a charismatic, dynamic, and complicated individual seeking to make sense of a world in transition.

'The African Hercules has his club poised ready to smite any new head which the colonialist hydra may care to put out.' The Revolutionary Thoughts of Kwame Nkrumah offers a vivid portrayal of Nkrumah's visionary leadership in shaping the post-colonial trajectory of Ghana and the broader African continent. Nkrumah's fervent dedication to Pan-Africanism and self-determination is illuminated through his writing at pivotal moments such as the formation of Ghana in 1957 and the establishment of the Organisation of African States in 1963. This collection curates a selection of his radio broadcasts, speeches and essays which display his unwavering commitment to African liberation and resilience, despite facing formidable challenges posed by counterrevolutionary imperialist forces. Through meticulous diplomacy and ideological clarity, Nkrumah emerged as a beacon of hope for oppressed peoples across the world. The Revolutionary Thoughts of Kwame Nkrumah offers readers a compelling glimpse into the intellectual and political legacy of a towering figure in African history. This edition is edited by Efemia Chela and Vijay Prashad and features an introduction by Kwesi Pratt Jnr., secretary-general of the Socialist Movement of Ghana and Dr Francis Nkrumah.
