This collection critically examines "tolerance," "secularism," and respect for religious "diversity" within a social and political system dominated by Sufi brotherhoods. Through a detailed analysis of Senegal's political economy, essays trace the genealogy and dynamic exchange among these concepts while investigating public spaces and political processes and their reciprocal engagement with the state, Sunni reformist and radical groups, and non-religious organizations. The anthology provides a rich and nuanced historical ethnography of the formation of Senegalese democracy, illuminating the complex trajectory of the Senegalese state and reflecting on similar postcolonial societies. Offering rare perspectives on the country's "successes" since liberation, the volume identifies the role of religion, gender, culture, ethnicity, globalization, politics, and migration in the reconfiguration of the state and society, and it makes an important contribution to democratization theory, Islamic studies, and African studies.

Mamadou Diouf unearths the intellectual and cultural traditions that have long defined Africa, proving that history was never just written about Africa, but also by it.For too long, Africa has been framed as an afterthought in world history—a continent written into the margins of time. In Africa in the World’s Time, renowned historian Mamadou Diouf dismantles these colonial narratives and reclaims Africa’s rightful place at the center of global historical thought. Moving beyond Western frameworks, Diouf examines the continent’s intellectual traditions and demonstrates how African artists and historians have shaped and reshaped how we understand the past.Tracing central debates from the independence era to today, Diouf examines figures like Cheikh Anta Diop and Samir Amin, as well as the vital role of literature and film in contesting predominant histories. He challenges the linear, Eurocentric timelines that have long governed historical discourse, and puts forward a vision of Africa as a force that has always been influencing and reimagining the world.

Les arts de la citoyenneté au Sénégal est un ouvrage original qui examine des trajectoires urbaines dans le Sénégal contemporain et met à l’épreuve des perspectives inédites, qui portent une attention spécifique à la question de l’esthétique urbaine. Il aborde les politiques et stratégies déployées par les principaux acteurs et les manières dont ils rêvent la ville idéale, à partir des sites singuliers qu’ils occupent et des pouvoirs qu’ils détiennent.L’analyse privilégie les figures esthétiques, iconographiques, musicales et kinésiques des expressions citoyennes, des modes d’(auto)représentation et des parcours complexes de subjectivation individuelle et collective, alimentés principalement par des ressources urbaines. Cette lecture attentive des mutations sociales, politiques, économiques et culturelles des villes sénégalaises intervient très activement dans les débats théoriques et empiriques sur les études urbaines, en y incorporant des situations africaines souvent absentes de la littérature universitaire sur les villes.L’originalité des contributions de ce livre sur Les arts de la citoyenneté au Sénégal est de suivre à la trace les contingences, stratégies, innovations culturelles, mais aussi les recompositions sociales et spatiales qui réorganisent les ressources locales et globales, disponibles ou imaginées, pour les mettre au service de formes inédites de mobilisation et d’action politiques. Ces reconfigurations renouvellent les formules de civilité urbaine et citoyenne dont les expressions les plus significatives prennent des contours et des lignes artistiques. La juxtaposition de plusieurs échelles, géographique, locale et globale, rurale et urbaine, ouvre des perspectives novatrices aux études des régimes de civilité et de leurs pratiques ainsi qu’aux langages qui redéfinissent les cultures et communautés urbaines. Cet ouvrage constitue à ce titre une contribution majeure à la littérature sur les villes africaines.Mamadou Diouf est professeur d’Histoire et d’Études africaines. Il occupe la chaire Leitner Family d’Études africaines et dirige l’Institut d’Études africaines de l’université Columbia à New York (États-Unis).Rosalind Fredericks est assistante au Gallatin School of Individualized Study à l’université de New York à New York (États-Unis).
