Is africa's problems all attributes to colonizers?The solution to these problems

Africa is now faced up with all kinds of problems.Most people attribute this to colonizers. Maduabuchi Dukor also cited barrage of issues which in summary pointed to the fact that the legacy of the colonizers to the African continent was ill willed to create chaos and therefore to make the African perpetually dependent on the colonizers.

Africa's problems really only the fault of colonizers.In 2006, Annan pointed out that Africa's problems can be attributed to its colonial history and today's unjust international environment. But africans must realize that they should shoulder their fair share, looking for new ideas for development.A new research also claims that “African as a human being with free will and responsibility cannot continue to blame the colonizers when he has choice either to reject the colonial predetermined events or to accept them taking responsibility for his actions.”The paper analyzed the culpability of colonizers and African itself respectively.

Aristotle Refute the Harmonia Theory of the Soul?-No

There are different versions of the harmonia theory.In Aristotle’s On the Soul he considers and refutes two very narrow specifications: a harmonia is either a ratio of certain parts of the body or it’s a material composite, namely, the living body. Thus he is able to reject both of these without, thereby, undercutting his view that the soul is the form of a living body. The reason for the perplexity of Aristotle’s commentators is that it turns out that he’s committed to a version of the view he’s trying to refute. He rejects versions of the harmonia theory, but in the end the view he accepts is itself a harmonia account. By carefully distinguishing and arguing against the versions of the theory he finds objectionable, Aristotle is able to accept what the harmonia theory gets right namely, that the soul is the structure of the living body.

This conclusion is made by Douglas J Young, Department of Philosophy ,Lycoming College,USA. Through analyzing,he claimed that Aristotle’s hylomorphic account is, in fact, an instance of the harmonia theory.
