The book "Knowledge Stocks (Dominating)" by Nina Simon offers an in-depth examination of German didactics from a critical perspective. It advocates for an epistemological reorientation that integrates both power-critical and anti-racist approaches. Through the analysis of interview statements from students and theoretical perspectives, a new understanding of the challenges and opportunities in higher education is developed. The work illuminates the complex social conditions that influence educational actions and didactic content. It calls for questioning existing structures and promoting a didactics that is both possible and impossible, encouraging reflection on the roles of educators and learners in this process.
