Abstract

This article discusses the UNESCO concept of learning city in relation to the peculiarities of the African city. After reviewing earlier theoretical frameworks recommended for the promotion of learning city projects within sub-Saharan Africa, the article comes to the conclusion that those earlier theoretical frameworks are prescriptive. Upon further analysis of the peculiarities of the African city, the article opines that only within a reflexive theoretical framework that is supported by traditional African pedagogies would a learning city project in sub-Saharan Africa succeed.
走向非洲学习型城市理论
本文结合非洲城市的特点,探讨了联合国教科文组织关于学习型城市的概念。在回顾了早期为促进撒哈拉以南非洲学习型城市项目而建议的理论框架后,文章得出结论,这些早期的理论框架是规范性的。在进一步分析非洲城市的特点后,文章认为,只有在传统非洲教育学支持的反射性理论框架内,撒哈拉以南非洲的学习型城市项目才能成功。
