摘要

本文探讨了非洲的仇外现象。恐怖管理理论将生存问题与世界观的发展联系在一起,有助于理解变幻莫测的生活。我们提出,殖民主义影响了非洲人的集体主义和人类联系的世界观,并促成了将世界视为危险之地的世界观。作者在很大程度上将非洲人对非洲人的仇外态度归因于殖民经历,殖民经历促进了种族不和,影响了对陌生人的看法和接受能力。作者比较了殖民前非洲社会和殖民后非洲社会的集体主义价值观,以说明殖民主义的影响。此外,作者还简要介绍了尼日利亚殖民主义遗留下来的种族政治。最后,作者强调了承认种族身份的重要性,这是管理非洲国家对同胞仇外态度的一种方法。

Xenophobia in the context of African worldviews: A synopsis of the Nigerian situation.

This paper examines the phenomenon of xenophobia in Africa. The manifestation of xenophobia was explored within the tenets of the terror management theory which links existential concerns to the development of worldviews that help to make sense of life vagaries. We put forward that colonialism impacted the African worldview of collectivism and human connectedness and contributed to a worldview of the world as a dangerous place. The authors largely situate xenophobic attitudes of Africans toward Africans within the colonial experience which promoted ethnic discord and influenced the perception and receptivity toward strangers. The value of collectivism in pre-colonial and post-colonial African societies was compared to demonstrate the impact of colonialism. Furthermore, a synopsis of ethnic politics as a legacy of colonialism in Nigeria was provided. The authors conclude by emphasizing the importance of giving recognition to ethnic identity as one approach to managing xenophobic attitudes toward co-nationals in African countries.
