The Jünger Debatte is the publication organ of the Ernst and Friedrich Georg Jünger Society which brings together texts and documents related to the life, work, and reception of the Jünger brothers. Due to its international importance, the focus lies on Ernst Jünger’s work.

Each volume features a thematic focus in accordance with the Jünger society’s annual conference. The initial volume will address Ernst Jünger’s relationship to Judaism. It includes contributions by Helmuth Kiesel, Reinhard Mehring, Detlev Schöttker, and Peter Trawny, among others. The issue also includes an overview of recent publications on Jünger by Alexander Pschera as well as an annotated selection of previously unpublished correspondences between Ernst Jünger and the Jewish historian Joseph Wulf, a survivor of Auschwitz and pioneer of Holocaust research in Germany.
