| dc.description.abstract | The relationship between the older generation and the younger age bloc, in Africa, today, is being redefined. Such a redefinition is occasioned by the aesthetics of the culture of the latter age category. This is geared towards a redirection of the continent’s development course. However, certain conditions are required for the attainment of the objectives of the new aesthetic cultural order. The paper, therefore, investigates the nature of the new youth attitudinal culture which conflicts with the older generational cultural codes. From the Russian dialectical materialism perspective, the paper analyses youth attitudinal shift as driven by huge proclivity for contrary moral view. The paper concludes that the youth rank in Africa is endowed with the cerebral capabilities to drive Africa’s development in all ramifications if the psyche of the youth rank in Africa is emancipated from the controvertible African thought system and ethical stipulations. Key Words: Aesthetics, Neo-culture, Youth, Africa, Development, Cultural codes | |
