This study presents a refined Afrocentric critique of world politics. Rejecting earlier wholesale condemnations of Eurocentrism, the author instead roots Afrocentrism in its capacity to offer itself as a worldview supportive of scientific paradigms suggesting social science theory. Arguing that African peoples―their history and humanity―are denigrated in many Eurocentric analyses, Henderson makes clear that Africans in particular, though not exclusively, must promote paradigms rooted in their own historical image and interests. The author offers kimira, an historical African-centered paradigm rooted in an analysis of cultural groups, as a distinct framework for explicating global political dynamics, and an appropriate starting point toward a new understanding of international affairs.

A critical study of both Afrocentrism as an approach and Eurocentric political science as a discipline, building from both without abandoning the best of either. This work challenges Eurocentrism to abandon hegemony and Afrocentrism to be scientific.
ERROL ANTHONY HENDERSON is Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Florida, where he teaches International Relations. He is a research associate with the Correlates of War (COW) Project.
