‘The relevance of philosophy is not always obvious to everyone.’ Hence, any serious attempt to enforce philosophy should depart from the question of the addressees’ intellectual disposition, precisely, the addressees’ receptiveness to philosophy. The author proposes a twofold programme of the advocacy of the philosophy: a Construction of Foundational Introductions to Philosophy and a Construction of Human Philosophy. The programme’s name is ‘Mlingano Philosophical Advocacy Attempts (MPAA)’. It is a reaction to two reasons attributable to the obscurity of understanding the role of philosophy in human development: the addressees’ ‘misconception of the inner nature of philosophy,’ and the ‘self-alienation of philosophy through its stubborn refusal to speak to the life of common men and women.’ Whereas foundational introductions react to the misconception, human philosophy responds to philosophy’s self-alienation. In this book, the author enquires into the features of a foundational introduction to philosophy. Precisely, he unveils four elements that should constitute a foundational introduction to philosophy. This work comes out as an inaugural contribution to MPAA publication series.
