Poetry and prose, book reviews, essays on current and historical, cultural and political, artistic and biographical topics, interviews, information about publishers, literary festivals, exhibitions and publications from all over Europe form the cornerstones of the program.

In the editorial of the first issue, the editor states: The new magazine BAWÜLON will not be a Babylon of fornication and sin, not even of disturbing and destructive confusion of languages, but a place of polyphony, of controversy in poesia.
