englischWas the ‘Kursbuch’ journal a “vade mecum” for the German protest movement from 1965 to 1975? The term “vade mecum” is used as a central theme in questioning the many protest movements that followed “1968” in the 1970s. This study analyses the interactions between the leftist journals ‘Das Argument’, ‘Konkret’ and ‘Kürbiskern’. The theses of the ‘Kursbuch’ journal contained in its informative and provocative “dossiers” stimulated and galvanised the remnants of the student movement. Publisher Hans Magnus Enzensberger and his co-publisher Karl Markus Michel discussed topics such as “new fascism” and as transnational cultural brokers conveyed the idea of a revolutionary utopia in the Federal Republic with their views on Latin America, China and the “Third World”. This study is the first to analyse the “Kursbögen”, the posters that helped to provide the 1970s leftist movement with a voice through their humour, sincerity and provocative nature. The journal’s history is an important part of cultural, intellectual and media studies on the Federal Republic of Germany.
