Abstract

In this introduction to the volume, we provide a critical overview of postsecondary diversity and decolonization discourses. Our aim is to show how these discourses have come to be integrated in discussions and debates on curriculum formation and the state of the field of German Studies over the course of the discipline’s recent history.
