A CRITIQUE ON AFRICAN SOCIALISM AS A PERFRECT HUMAN RELATION

Abstract

Socialism has been presented as one of the notions which is difficult to be understood in a comprehensive manner. The most important articulation about socialism is the fact that it is about human relations. This aspect is fundamentally in connection with the concept of care for each other as well as the spirit of sharing of earthly privileges which are God's given gifts to the humanity for its survival. What make socialism an issue of human concern is therefore, the struggle to understand on whether human beings are self-sufficient or to be human implies to be in a mutual dependence as ends themselves and not means an end. However, in reference to the values which African socialism propagates, provides a unified platform for a perfect human relation.
