Résumé
Initialement, L'idéal panafricain avait, comme agenda programmatique, la lutte pour libérer les Africains de la diaspora de l'esclavage et pour libérer le continent africain de l'occupation méprisable des puissances impériales européennes. Cet article revisite ce programme de libération par rapport à la crise actuelle de la mondialisation et en examinant la place toujours marginale
de l'Afrique dans l'économie politique capitaliste mondiale. L'article esquisse la généalogie et les contours de l'agenda de libération qui a lié la diaspora africaine aux développements sur le continent africain, qui remonte aux luttes anti-esclavagistes de la fin du XVIIIe siècle jusqu'à l'ère de l'Afrique indépendante. Nous soutenons que le point culminant du programme de libération, la défaite finale de l'apartheid en Afrique du Sud, a ironiquement coïncidé avec l'aggravation de la place de l'Afrique sur les échelons les plus bas du système capitaliste mondial. Aujourd'hui, la mondialisation a plutôt enfermé que relâché la position de l'Afrique à l'échelle de l'économie politique mondiale. Pour combattre la position marginale de l'Afrique, il faut revenir à la motivation initiale de l'agenda et de l'idéal panafricains : la vision commune et l'action collective des Africains sur le continent et dans la diaspora pour une libération radicale.
