It´s there. The young internet magazine for the international reader. Once a month TYPEs editorship will present different topics of the world. Young authors will write for young readers.
The magazine is launching now, so the topic of the first edition was easily chosen: A new beginning. There are a lot of new things in the world, like TYPE. But is there also starting something new? It is difficult to answer this question. This complicated thing is shown by this issues lead-article “Beim Neubeginn ist nicht alles neu”.
There is a strong break in Mideast. Who will follow Jassir Arafat? His death is a turning point in this region. It will be hard to fill his position. The article “Arafat ist tot, es lebe Arafat” is dealing with that topic.
Europe: Christmas is knocking at the door. This celebration of love and peace has been built upon christian traditions. How do spanish catholics celebrate their Christmas? It is written in “Las navidades en Espana”. But besides Christians there are also Jewish and Muslim people in Europe. What similar celebrations do they have? To give you a deeper look into those religions we have two reports about the Jewish chanuka and the Sugarfestival of Muslims. And, if the december is too cold for you, just travel to Thailand. There is a travel report of that country in Southeast Asia: “Das Chaos in der grünen Pracht.”
I wish you Merry Christmas, iyi Bayramlar, Baruch Atah Adonaj Elohejnu Melech ha’olam and enjoy reading our first edition.
