"Daoist traditions introduced from China once flowed powerfully through the Japanese religious landscape, forever altering its topography and ecology. Daoism's presence in Japan still may be discerned in its abiding influence on astrology, divination, festivals, literature, politics, and popular culture, not to mention Buddhism and Shintō, yet few English-language studies of Daoism's influence on Japanese religious culture have been published. Daoism in Japan provides an exploration of the particular pathways by which Daoist traditions entered Japan from continental East Asia. After addressing the basic issues in both Daoism Studies and the study of Japanese religions, including the problems of defining 'Daoism' and 'Japanese', the book looks at the influence of Daoism on ancient, medieval and modern Japan in turn. To do so, the volume is arranged both chronologically and topically, according to the following three broad divisions: "Arrivals" (c. 5th-8th centuries CE), "Assimilations" (794-1868), and "Apparitions" ( 1600s-present). The book demonstrates how Chinese influence on Japanese religious culture ironically proved to be crucial in establishing traditions that usually are seen as authentically, even quintessentially, Japanese. Touching on multiple facets of Japanese cultural history and religious traditions, this book is a fascinating contribution for students and scholars of Japanese Culture, History and Religions, as well as Daoism Studies"--

Die öffentliche Ordnung ist der Dauerbrenner im Verwaltungsrecht – aktuell gegen Bestrebungen im Rechtsextremismus, Islamismus und Linksextremismus. Denn extremistische Versammlungen nutzen die Versammlungsfreiheit und Meinungsfreiheit extensiv. Kann die wehrhafte Demokratie insbesondere Provokationen von Demonstrationen durch Anlehnungen an die Zeit des Nationalsozialismus anhand der öffentlichen Ordnung unterbinden? Wie können symbolträchtige Orte und Daten geschützt werden? Welche Symbole und militärischen Elemente nutzen insbesondere Rechtsextremisten – und dürfen sie das? Wer ist bei Gegendemonstrationen Störer, wer Zweckveranlasser? Gibt es eine antinationalsozialistische Tendenz des Grundgesetzes? Dieses Buch schafft Klarheit. Es gibt zudem einen instruktiven Überblick zu den gegenwärtigen Themen Parteiverbot und Vereinsverbot, Ultimate Fighting, Shitstorm, Flashmob, Hate speech, Lasertag, Paintball und Nacktauftritte in der Öffentlichkeit.
