      ab: However, for Eze, this response is a reference to moral imagination that fails to reorder itself and society in relation to its environment, but merely reflects that environment. As much as our experience has been disrupted by the misadventures of the colonial project, we have also contributed to our present state, and our attempts at blaming the West for all our failures is, as Eze calls it, a propaganda against ourselves (see Eze [1]: 340-341). Eze's preferred method of ordinary reason is one that is philosophic by virtue of shunning 'unphilosophical encroachments by culturally contextualist social morality and politics' (Eze [3]: 76).
