What Democrats Talk about When They Talk about God is a collection of essays on the religious communication of members of the Democratic Party, past and present-in office, while campaigning, and in their public and private writing. While many books on the market address issues at the intersection of church and state, none to date have focused exclusively on Democrats as important participants in the dialogue about religion and politics.

The American experience has been defined, in part, by the rhetoric of exceptionalism. This book of 11 critical essays explores the notion as it is manifested across a range of contexts, including the presidency, foreign policy, religion, economics, American history, television news and sports. The idea of exceptionalism is explored through the words of its champions and its challengers, past and present. By studying how the principles of American exceptionalism have been used, adapted, challenged, and even rejected, this volume demonstrates the continued importance of exceptionalism to the mythology, sense of place, direction and identity of the United States, within and outside of the realm of politics.Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.

This book discusses how ancient Japanese mythology was utilized during the colonial period to justify the annexation of Korea to Japan, with special focus on the god Susanoo. Described as an ambivalent figure and wanderer between the worlds, Susanoo served as a foil to set off the sun goddess, who played an important role in the modern construction of a Japanese national identity.Susanoo inhabited a sinister otherworld, which came to be associated with colonial Korea. Imperialist ideologues were able to build on these interpretations of the Susanoo myth to depict Korea as a dreary realm at the margin of the Japanese empire that made the imperial metropole shine all the more brightly. At the same time, Susanoo was identified as the ancestor of the Korean people. Thus, the colonial subjects were ideologically incorporated into the homogeneous Japanese “family state.”The book situates Susanoo in Japan’s cultural memory and shows how the deity, while being repeatedly transformed in order to meet the religious and ideological needs of the day, continued to symbolize the margin of Japan.

Religionspolitik und politische Religion in Japan und Europa

In der neueren Debatte um das Wechselverhältnis von Religion und Politik hat Japan bislang keine Rolle gespielt; zu Unrecht, wie der vorliegende Band zeigt. Japan dürfte das einzige Land mit polytheistisch geprägter Kultur sein, das dem Imperialismus erfolgreich Widerstand entgegensetzte. Mit dem Aufstieg zur Kolonialmacht und der Erhebung des Shintoismus zur Staatsreligion stellte es die Denkmuster europäischer Überlegenheit infrage. Die polytheistische Religion sollte in diesem Transformationsprozess die historische Kontinuität des neuen Staates verbürgen. Dabei stimmen die rhetorischen Strategien überraschend genau mit dem Rückgriff der deutschen Romantik auf vermeintliche ‚Ursprünge‘ überein. Religiöse Symbolsprachen sind interpretationsoffen gegenüber politischen Deutungen, auch quer zur Unterscheidung von poly- und monotheistischen Religionen. Dies zeigt der Band in fünf Fallstudien von Germanisten und Japanologen.

Der heutige Band ist der erste, der sich mit der Geschichte der Gesellschaft für Arbeitsmethodik e. V. beschäftigt. Uns ist es gelungen, mit Dr. David Weiss einen Historiker zu gewinnen, der die GfA, beginnend mit ihrer Gründung, aus der Sicht eines externen Beobachters in einen historischen Kontext einordnet. Warum dieser Rückblick? Wichtig ist uns, zu verdeutlichen, wie modern die GfA e. V. immer gewesen ist. Neue Entwicklungen wurden von ihr stets strukturiert aufgenommen. Die GfA wurde wahrgenommen, wie etwa umfangreiche Besprechungen sowohl in der Wirtschaftswoche als auch im Handelsblatt belegen. Auch die Fernseh-Akademie ist hierfür ein Beispiel. Wurden doch die Veranstaltungen der GfA im Südwesten aufgezeichnet und gesendet. Die GfA hat stets klare Orientierung in Zeiten globalen Wirtschaftens, flexibler Arbeitsgestaltung, Segmentierung der Gesellschaft sowie der Medien- und Informationsflut geben wollen. Sie ist ein Netzwerk von Personen mit einer Vielzahl persönlicher und methodischer Kompetenzen. Außerdem ist sie eine emotionale Gemeinschaft Sie ist zeitlos, trifft aber immer auch den aktuellen Zeitgeist.
