Matriarchy, Patriarchy and Imperial safety in Africa is an interdisciplinary remedy of a subject that's often addressed through political scientists and army strategists. instead of stick with Thomas P. M. Barnett’s, Samuel Huntington’s and Edward Saïd’s top-down method of the turn-of-the-twenty-first century conflict of the West and the remainder, this booklet takes readers on a 3 thousand 12 months, grassroots trip via imperialism, linguistics, and utilized severe concept to teach readers that peace eludes us simply because we're not all operating with an analogous definition of nationwide security.
By including a Saharan global alternate approach to the traditional Oriental-Occidental binary of conventional Western Civilization narratives, this publication opens a view of Western Europe as a colonized territory of a medieval Roman empire that by no means died. A parallel imperial reorganization happened in West Asia. either platforms deployed patriarchy as a gender bomb to implode and triumph over matriarchal economies. This conflict of eu, West Asian and African matriarchal and patriarchal empires was once the crucible that produced the U.S. of the United States as elder sibling of the relations of post-colonial frontier countries.
The writer argues that patriarchal imperialists of Africa, Western Asia and Western Europe tempted matriarchal males to betray the rights of ladies in trade for some great benefits of patria potestas. Patriarchal empires then corrupt definitions of fatherhood and dehumanize the conquered males until eventually they be afflicted by a societal malaise that the writer calls patria impotestas. Such economically castrated males revolted some time past they usually reply now with twenty-first century mass protests opposed to austerity measures in Europe and protests opposed to Wall highway within the U.S. in addition to with acts of terrorism and, tragically, battle crimes opposed to girls.
In this publication, the main insecure everyone is the elite. the writer concludes that terrorism, piracy and acts of sabotage opposed to business actual crops will proceed in Africa, Asia and the West till traditional humans all over the world have confident solutions to the Primordial query: Will my relatives devour this day and sleep peacefully in the course of the night?
