Trafik was a German-language anarchist magazine for culture and politics . It appeared in Mülheim / R. from 1981 to 1992.
history
The " Journal zur Kultur der Anarchy " (subtitle) was published by two anarchists on the grounds that anarchism in theory and practice was and is at the same time a cultural movement internationally. This aspect was the focus of the magazine, and political issues were also addressed. From No. 23 (1986) this was expressed in the new subtitle, International Journal on Libertarian Culture and Politics . The topics of the individual issues included society against the state, international practice of libertarian education, theory and practice of libertarian communities, libertarian music from funk to punk and culture shock - libertarian literature . In No. 8 of 1982 it was read that the Viennese comrades had founded a "telephone newspaper" as a propaganda medium as an alternative news service. This project was discontinued by Swiss Post after six months and continued to be operated privately by a group with new information every day. A reading on the history of anarchism was organized with the Vienna Adult Education Center. Three hundred people attended an evening talk with Augustin Souchy . An article and a note about the Turkish-language magazine Anarko appeared in numbers 8 and 27 of Trafik .
Trafik had a circulation of between 200 and 1,200 copies, initially appeared every two months, later at irregular intervals. The editor Peter Petersen described the attitude of the magazine in a letter to the author Bernd Drücke with the words: “ Apart from my lack of strength, time and money, I am currently particularly missing the willingness of the libertarian camp in Germany to not just publish such a publication Dissemination, but above all to support it through cooperation ”. Trafik published articles by Ensane Azad, Murray Bookchin , John Cage , Klaus Haag, Andre Heller , Arthur Miller , Dorothee Post, Colin Ward , Josef Wintjes , George Woodcock and others.
