dc.descriptionThe purpose of this short intervention is to review the state of interaction between our  universities in East Africa so far as intellectual debate is concerned. If in the process I  refer somewhat passionately to the debates of the 60s and 70s, it is not out of nostalgia  but to draw inspiration. And we need this inspiration given the state of intellectual inertia  and marketisation of academia that has set in with the invasion of neo­liberal agenda in  our universities. At the end I am also making a modest proposal as to how we may use  the  vantage  point  of this Workshop  to start  about reflecting  on  the mechanisms to  kick­start the process of an Eastern African Discourse.   But the academics that we are, I must provide the background and the context, albeit in  somewhat disjointed sketches.
