"Merkur" has been published since 1947 and had an edition of approximately 4,800 copies as of July 2011. The magazine was formerly headquartered in Munich.

Adorno, Ernst Bloch, Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Jürgen Habermas, Axel Honneth, and Carl Schmitt or sociologists such as Arnold Gehlen, Niklas Luhmann, Hans  Joas, and Dirk Baecker, but also writers such as Ingeborg Bachmann, Ilse Aichinger, Alfred Andersch, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, and Kathrin Röggla.
