Abstract:'Beyond identities - rethinking power in Africa' was the general theme of the biennial Nordic Africa Days organized in October 2001 by the Nordic Africa Institute in Uppsala. The present discussion paper contains the plenary presentations by three invited African scholars: Amina Mama, whose 'gendered perspective' contrasts with the focus on a particular philosophical approach related to language and identity as presented by Souleymane Bachir Diagne, and Francis B. Nyamnjoh, whose summarizing reflections on identity served to introduce a final panel debate.
