The Scientificity of African Traditional Knowledge Kiatezua Lubanzadio Luyaluka

This book offers a naturalized epistemology of traditional African-Negro knowledge (ATK). It demonstrates the scientific nature of ATK in a new approach, independently of the Western approach of naturalized epistemology. It follows that the ATKs, termed solar sciences, are a paradigm different from Western science, called lunar, that is to say, focused on matter. ATKs are based on the spiritual facts of being. They have demonstrable epistemological foundations, while the epistemological foundations of lunar science are not demonstrable. ATKAs result in a technology whose highest articulation involves the use of divine spirits, a technology that is more efficient, less expensive and more respectful of the environment. Far from being a superstition, the existence of these spirits is a demonstrable scientific fact of the solar paradigm. After having demonstrated the nature, the scientific validity of CTNA, the work shows us that humanity is on the verge of the return of the preponderance of solar science on the lunar and explains the conditions of this advent.
