24/7 magazine of TelefonSeelsorge Deutschland
24/7 journal of TelefonSeelsorge Deutschland is the continuation of the journal of the German telephone counseling , published from 1984 to 2016 with the title Auf Draht .
history
The history of pastoral care by telephone documents various approaches to bringing an information service into being, all of which have failed, but at the same time culminated in “das Blatt” with the “imagined” magazine title “Auf Draht”.
The first attempt was an information service that existed from June 1967 to June 1969 , which was discontinued after four editions; likewise the information service of the research center for TS , beginning 1973 with number 1 and ending 1979 with number 4. It was no different for the telephone counseling information service , which existed from October 1975 (1st edition) to July 1983 (15th edition) and after a scandal was discontinued. The trigger was that this service published three articles without consulting the editorial team and two letters to the editor on homosexuality remained unpublished.
Against this background, the decision was made in 1983 at the annual leaders' conference in the Franconian community of Vierzehnheiligen ( fourteen holy helpers ): The “information service telephone counseling” is to be discontinued; there will be a follow-up sheet with an exclusively internal character; of the umbrella organizations only the two managing directors are born editorial members ; the previous (three) editors from among the full-time employees will remain; in future there will also be two editors from among the volunteers ; after four free sample numbers, the cost of the sheet should be designed in such a way that it bears itself; The editors should come up with a name for “the sheet”. The name Auf Draht was initially used as a temporary solution, but was retained until 2016 and only changed in 2017.
From today's perspective, Auf Draht's concern has changed over time, as can be seen from a look at an older imprint (Issue 2, 1984): “Auf Draht is an internal magazine for voluntary and full-time employees in the telephone pastoral care centers and open doors in Germany Germany and Berlin (West). The magazine is only delivered to telephone counseling centers and open doors. "The narrowing of the readership as evidenced by this can be proven up to issue 80 (August 2012), but was then replaced by" Auf Draht / Zeitschrift der TelefonSeelsorge Deutschland ", such as the imprint of number 81 ( December 2012) and subsequent editions.
“Das Blatt” owes the abandonment of its historical self-image and the name change that took place in 2017 to a change of editorial generation and is now also open to interested readers outside of the German telephone pastoral care. At the same time, the concept and layout were made more professional, attractive and contemporary.
Design and frequency of publication
The design of the specialist magazine Auf Draht put a title topic in the spotlight right from the start. In the first four issues of the magazine "Suicide" (issue 01/1984), "How we see ourselves - how others see us" (02/1984), "Who calls us from sex to addiction?" (03/1985) and “TS in transition? - what's next? "(04/1986). This idea for the conceptual design of the magazine has been retained to this day. In any case, this is evidenced by more recent editions with “points of view” such as “Walls and Borders” (87/2014), “Intuition” (88/2015), “Shame” (89/2015), “Language” (90/2014) and “Anonymity “(1/2017).
These topics focus on problems and solutions that are burning on the nails of the telephone counseling staff. In addition, the booklets usually contain targeted media recommendations. Furthermore, this magazine gives outsiders and sponsors unvarnished insights: What is doing, what is the effect of telephone counseling today? Why is telephone counseling worthy of support, why does it still need support decades after it was founded? Why can't telephone counseling exist without the voluntary commitment of many thousands?
The authors of the contributions are voluntary or full-time employees of the telephone counseling. Texts and studies from other publications and media are sometimes reprinted in the TelefonSeelsorge Deutschland's 24/7 magazine . Technical contributions from external authors seem welcome. This also applies to the photo contributions editorially required for the conceptual design.
The 24/7 magazine of TelefonSeelsorge Deutschland appears three times a year (April, August, December) with a circulation of 4,000 copies (as of 2017), and since the name change has also been an audio version on CD. The editorial deadline for authors of the articles is two months before the publication of the magazine.
