history

Managing Director and main shareholder Gunnar Schedel, 2012

The Alibri-Verlag emerged from the IBDK, the international book service of the non-denominational , which initially only published the magazine MIZ materials and information and was expanded in 1984 to IBDK Verlag + Vertrieb . The aim was to join the production of the Szczesny publishing house , which had ceased operations in 1967. In April 1994, the name Alibri was adopted and integrated as a publisher into the newly founded Association of Linker Publishers ("aLiVe"), which is an amalgamation of smaller left-wing publishers and has also had a joint publishing house since 1997. After the first title was published by Alibri in 1996, a larger program started in 1998.

The managing director is the literary scholar Gunnar Schedel (* 1964 in Aschaffenburg ). Schedel is a secular humanist and is committed, among other things, to the impunity of insulting denominations, religious societies and ideological associations . Among other things, he also writes for the materials and information on the time (MIZ) .

The publishing house has been operated in the legal form of a GmbH since 2010, with Gunnar Schedel and Colin Goldner , Michael Schmidt-Salomon and Hermann Josef Schmidt among others . Alibri Verlag is a member of hpd e. V., the sponsoring association of the Humanist Press Service (hpd).

Programs

Alibri sees itself as an explicitly secular publisher and with its program covers the broadest range of topics of the publishers belonging to this scene. It ranges from religious and church criticism to critical examination of esotericism . As a “forum for utopia and skepticism”, Alibri published both studies of the skeptic movement and contributions to humanistic and materialistic philosophy.

Since June 2007 the Alibri Verlag and the anyway publishing cooperative have been working together in all areas relating to the book trade and in sales and public relations. The publisher became known to a larger audience through the discussions about the children's book Where please goes to God? asked Schmidt-Salomon's little piglet .

The authors in the publishing program include:
