Youth and cultures in North Cameroon: Crossed views on the human meaning of the integral development of African society - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

This work is a critical study of the way of life and cultural practices in five novels by authors from North Cameroon through the prism of subjectivities. In this cultural universe, the vision of the world negatively influences the development of youth. Indeed, the youth is confronted with a system of values and beliefs that dangerously hinders its development. The habits and customs constitute a straitjacket that hinders and suffocates. It turns out that ethnic culture exerts an influence on revealed religion, thus leading to a kind of advanced depersonalization. The conformists want to keep the tradition intact, unalterable. Conscious of the stakes of globalization and their rights, the young people, as good revolutionary iconoclasts, revolt against taboos, against dogmas, against all kinds of oppression to reverse the trend, that is to say to change the pre-established order in spite of the mistreatment, the torture and the reclusion inflicted. Their cry from the heart is a cry of alarm, a call for an awareness of the evils that gangrene the Septentrion and therefore, slow down its development.
