Title: Call for Papers: 2005 Convention, South Atlantic Modern Language Association
Body: Session of the American Association of Teachers of German: Politics in the German Language Classroom, Atlanta, Georgia, 4 - 6 November 2005 Recent exchanges on the AATG listerv provide the basis for this year's topic. It has been said that the most conservative of all beliefs is that one could ever be "apolitical," yet many in our field feel bound to achieve just that in the classroom. Carl Schmidt claimed that "totalitarianism is the absence of political discussion" and Henry Kissinger slammed educators with the quip that "the politics of the academy are so petty, precisely because the stakes are so low." Can we be apolitical? Do we have a duty to engage politics? Are the stakes really so low? What is the role of politics in the classroom, on the listserv or in second language education? We invite papers that seek to answer these questions and provide practical solutions for pedagogical practice. Topics are open to treat issues of historical, actual, and social politics and how these can or why they should not be treated in the classroom. Can we talk about the Second World War, current politics, or the popularity of "Schnappi" in light of declining birth rates in Germany? Are we allowed to voice our own opinions? If so, how can one do it without intimidating students who do not share one's opinions? Presentations treating issues of institutional limitations, linguistic limitations or providing material and methodological examples are most welcome. Please submit abstracts of one page in length to mclsnc@gsu.edu by April 1, 2005.
