{"pk":45614,"title":"Cosmopolitical and Transnational Interventions in German Studies","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This Special Topic presents a collection of scholarly essays which emerged from  a multi- and interdisciplinary panel series at the 49th Annual Conference of the German Studies Association, and which represent the continuation of a collaborative thought process about transnational and cosmopolitical interventions that re-position the nation as text, performance, and pedagogy. From multiple critical perspectives, these articles examine anthropological, historical, cultural, linguistic, literary, and political reactions to German self-imagination and German imagination of the non-German/non-European “other,” thereby raising many questions pertinent to scholarly inquiry in the interdisciplinary field of German Studies.","language":"en","license":null,"keywords":[{"word":"cosmopolitanism"},{"word":"cosmopolitical"},{"word":"Transnationalism"},{"word":"Transnational"},{"word":"Postcolonial"},{"word":"Globalization"},{"word":"immigration debates"},{"word":"German Studies"},{"word":"Cultural Studies"},{"word":"German language"},{"word":"Turkish-German"},{"word":"Thilo Sarrazin"},{"word":"German Language and Literature"},{"word":"Area Studies, Other"},{"word":"Ethnic, Cultural Minority, Gender, and Group Studies"}],"section":"Articles","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/78d804v8","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"B.
