The reflections presented in this launch issue - as well as the issues in preparation - signal the main orientations of the journal: they come from several disciplines (culture, literature, sociology, political science and law), written in English or French. In its editorial policy, Afroglobe intends to contribute to the production of knowledge about Africa and the world in African languages. That is why the summaries of the articles and the interview in this issue are translated into Wolof (Boubacar Boris Diop, Serigne Momar Sarr), Bamana (Noël Sanou) and Swahili (Michael Okyerefo, Kayamba Tshitshi Ndouba).
