CfP: The Multicultural German Project’s Mission Possible: Why German Studies Now?

Sharing this on behalf of our comrades at the Multicultural Germany Project at UC Berkeley

Building on existing synergies in the Department of German at the University of California, Berkeley discussed at a recent workshop based on Annika Orich's recent article "Archival Resistance: Reading the New Right." (German Politics & Society. Summer 2020, Vol. 38, Issue 2: 1-34) and Th. W. Adorno's 1967 lecture "Aspekte des neuen Rechtsradikalismus," the Multicultural Germany Project (MGP) cordially invites you to submit brief takes responding to the question "Why German Studies Today?" 

These short and spiffy takes of approx. 600 words length can be posted as a comment to the Forum page of the Multicultural Germany Project website (mgp.berkeley.edu) or emailed to mcgermany@berkeley.edu to ultimately be published on our mainBlog. 

We would also like to invite you to join us in our critical news digest efforts toward the MGP Chronology, posting links to important news and op-ed articles with source information and a very brief commentary to mgp.berkeley.edu/forum.


Looking forward to collaborating with you all! 

Best regards,
