The New Order is a Christian magazine that has been published since 1946 with six issues per year. The editor-in-chief is the Roman Catholic social ethicist and Dominican Wolfgang Ockenfels and the publisher of the Walberberg Institute for Social Sciences , of which he is chairman.
history
The new order. Zeitschrift für Religion, Kultur, Gesellschaft was founded in 1946 by Laurentius Siemer as editor and Eberhard Welty as editor. They belonged to the Albertus Magnus Academy of the Dominicans in Walberberg near Cologne, on whose behalf they founded the new magazine.
Content orientation
The New Order is traditionally regarded as politically conservative or as a forum for “conservatively oriented theological interests”.
More recently, a debate has developed over the position of the magazine, particularly with regard to the question of whether the AfD could be elected by Christians. The Christian Social Ethics Working Group , an association of social ethicists at universities and academic colleges in German-speaking countries, published a declaration on March 14, 2019 in which they discussed social ethicists and "colleagues in theology and in other social, human and cultural sciences" called for a publication boycott of the magazine, since it had meanwhile been "led into a populist and extremely right-wing channel". The working group recommended that the Dominican order intervene to limit the damage. 63 authors and friends of the New Order, including two cardinals and scientists from various disciplines, responded to this call for a boycott with a lengthy letter entitled Substantial Dialogue Instead of Stigmatization and Exclusion, which appeared on June 12, 2019 in the weekly newspaper Die Tagespost .
