There are many features of predominantly qualitative research that will be presented and considered in this book forming a repository of African philosophical writings that consider the nature and processes involved in qualitative, psychological, and social science research. The questions address include, but are not limited to, fundamental metaphysical questions, questions about the nature of the data or information that will be gathered and how this is collected, the types of enquiries being engaged and the form those enquiries may take, the position of the researcher within the research process coupled with reflexivity. African Philosophy and Psychology in Social Science is an up-to-date collection of essays on the relationship between philosophy and the social sciences from the perspective of philosophy that has developed and exists in Africa.This book will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers in psychology, African studies, philosophy and social science.
