Abstract

These days men became more sensitive to the transformation of good customs and they are demanding their rights concerning with the value of people and human dignity, moreover the concept of value very often is been distorted in such way that it results in an homogenisation, behaviour and culturalisation, from this point of view Immanuel Kant thought is really relevant, since it has got sufficient reasons that argues the critical conscience against the homogenisation behaviour as well as the axiological relativism. This is the reason why we decided to cogitate the Africans folk values through Kantian’s philosophy.
