Anhand der angewendeten qualitativen Forschungs- methoden der teilnehmende Beobachtung und des ero-epischen Gesprächs wird das Verhalten in Hinblick auf den Marihuanakonsums dargelegt. Untersucht wurde die persönliche Sichtweise von langjährigen Konsumenten und deren subjektiv empfundenen Vor- und Nachteile, die mit dem Konsum dieser illegalen Substanz einhergehen. Neben Ritualen und Traditionen wurden Konsummodalitäten, Konsumgründe, Rechtfertigungen, soziale Umstände und Erfahrungen mit sozialen Kontrollinstanzen beleuchtet. Des Weiteren wird auf die Bedeutung der Gruppe und deren Dynamiken eingegangen. Oftmals sind die Cannabiskonsumenten an bestimmten Symbolen und spezifischem Vokabular zu erkennen. Bei jährlichen Veranstaltungen wie die Wiener Hanfmesse oder dem Hanfwandertag findet sich ein Teil dieser Randkultur zusammen, um öffentlich für ihr Recht auf Genuss einzutreten. Außerdem haben die neuen-sozialen Medien beim Austausch von Informationen auch hier an Bedeutung gewonnen. Mit dem langjährigen Konsum kommt es zur Herausbildung bestimmter Einstellungen und Werthaltungen. Dies ist nicht immer gleichbedeutend mit einem lotterhaften Leben am Rande der Gesellschaft, im Gegenteil sind einige meiner Kontakte mit Prestige und Status ausgestattet. Trotz eines hohen Individualisierungsdrangs gibt es unter den Konsumenten einen starken Zusammenhalt, der aufgrund der gegenseitigen Abhängigkeit bezüglich Versorgung und Geheimhaltung entsteht. Aber auch aufgrund der gemeinsam vollzogenen Rituale. Drogenbiographien sind hochgradig individuell und prozesshaft, jedoch hat jeder meiner Gesprächspartner mit dem Marihuanakonsum angefangen, weil sich ein Zugang ergab. Sie betrachten ihren Konsum durchaus kritisch, sehen es aber als Zeichen ihrer persönlichen Freiheit selbst zu entscheiden, welches Rauschmittel sie konsumieren, selbst wenn sie damit geltende Normen und Gesetze brechen. Neben dem individualistischen und hedonistischen Charakter dieser Kultur, birgt sie auch rebellische Eigenschaften, sowie Tendenzen von Eskapismus. Cannabiskonsum ist ein Heraustreten aus dem Alltag, aus dem Selbstökonomisierungszwang und der Leistungsethik. Dieser lustvollen Alltagsunterbrechung haftet etwas Magisches wie auch gefährliches an. 4 1. Einleitung Cannabis ist die weltweit am häufigsten konsumierte illegale Droge und kann auf eine lange Tradition zurückblicken. Verehrung, Mystifizierung aber auch Verteufelung existieren rund um diese Pflanze. Ihr Konsum wird gemeinhin geringschätzig betrachtet. Cannabiskonsum ist jedoch nicht nur ein kulturelles sondern aufgrund seiner Illegalität auch ein wirtschaftliches Phänomen und somit Nährboden für das organisierte Verbrechen.

  • The Church of Scientology's View of the Relationship Between God And
    The significance of the use of ganja as a religious ritual in the Rastafari movement S P Pretorius (University of South Africa) ABSTRACT The significance of the use of ganja as a religious ritual in the Rastafari movement In 2000, the South African Constitutional Court ruled that religious freedom, including the exercise of religious rituals, may not contradict the laws of the country. This ruling came as a result of the Western Cape Law Society’s refusal to admit a Rastafarian as lawyer because of his habit of smoking marijuana. He appealed to the Constitutional Court and claimed that the ruling infringed upon his right to religious freedom. The Constitutional Court upheld the decision that no exception may be made for one religion. The smoking of marijuana or “ganja” as it is better known is viewed as a deeply religious ritual element in the worship of the Rastafarian movement. But what significance and value does this ritual have in the Rastafari religion? The conclusion of this article is that irrespective of the negative connotations often associated with the use of ganja, it remains an important religious ritual in Rasta spirituality. The significance lies in the experience associated with an altered state of consciousness when ganja is used. A spiritual enlightenment or revelation of God is obtained during this altered state of consciousness, that is, a closeness or oneness with Jah. A type of spiritual/psychological healing or transformation also takes place during this period of altered consciousness in terms of establishing the self-worth of a person through what is known as the “I-and-I” consciousness.

When it ceases to part with any colour to the water, it is ready to be smoked. The chillum is a bowl with a short neck issuing straight from the bottom of it, all made of clay; the same that is commonly used for smoking tobacco. It is laid with a foundation of a small quantity of tobacco. On this is placed the washed ganja which has been chopped up and another thin layer of tobacco. A live coal is placed on the charged pipe, a damp cloth is generally wrapped round the neck of it and folded into the palm of the left hand, while the pipe is grasped by the neck between the thumb and first finger. The right hand is pressed, fingers upwards, against the cloth and neck of the pipe, and the draught is made through the space between the thumb and first finger of this hand. A few short breaths are blown and drawn to light up the pipe, and when this is accomplished one long deep draught is taken with the lungs. The pipe is then handed on to a companion, and so goes the round of the circle. 417. In Bengal charas is only used by people in good circumstances.

NORML New Zealand was founded in 1979 as a non-profit incorporated society that campaigns for an end to marijuana prohibition.

  • Paterson Title
    Prohibition & Resistance: A Socio-Political Exploration of the Changing Dynamics of the Southern African Cannabis Trade, c. 1850 – the present. A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History at Rhodes University By Craig Paterson December 2009 Abstract Looking primarily at the social and political trends in South Africa over the course of the last century and a half, this thesis explores how these trends have contributed to the establishment of the southern Africa cannabis complex. Through an examination of the influence which the colonial paradigm based on Social Darwinian thinking had on the understanding of the cannabis plant in southern Africa, it is argued that cannabis prohibition and apartheid laws rested on the same ideological foundation. This thesis goes on to argue that the dynamics of cannabis production and trade can be understood in terms of the interplay between the two themes of ‘prohibition’ and ‘resistance’. Prohibition is not only understood to refer to cannabis laws, but also to the proscription of inter-racial contact and segregation dictated by the apartheid regime. Resistance, then, refers to both resistance to apartheid and resistance to cannabis laws in this thesis. Including discussions on the hippie movement and development of the world trade, the anti-apartheid movement, the successful implementation of import substitution strategies in Europe and North America from the 1980’s, and South Africa’s incorporation into the global trade, this thesis illustrates how the apartheid system (and its collapse) influenced the region’s cannabis trade. Keywords: anti-apartheid movement, apartheid, colonialism, cannabis prohibition, cannabis trade, dagga, hippie movement, southern African cannabis complex Table of Contents Introduction and Overview………………………………………………………………p.

  • The Big Blue Book of Cannabis
    INtroduCtIoN Words Used In This Book The name ‘cannabis’ comes from the Hebrew kaneh bosm, meaning ‘sweet reed’. There have been hundreds of different slang names used to describe cannabis and its effects over the years. In this book we will use the expressions ‘stoned’ or ‘high’ to describe the effects of cannabis, but in all other cases we will try to explain any slang names we use as we go along. Before we begin we have included a general guide to some of the most popular names around at the moment. General slang names for cannabis include: blow, budda, dope, draw, puff, smoke, pot (from the Portuguese word potiguaya) and wacky-backy (from Del-Boy in ‘Only Fools And Horses’). The words ‘marijuana’ and ‘weed’ originally meant herbal cannabis only, but are now names used for any kind of cannabis. Slang names for cannabis resin include: hashish, charas, block, solid. Slang names for herbal cannabis include: green, ganja, grass, bush, herb, bud, leaf, skunk. Cannabis users are usually referred to as: pot heads, stoners, tokers, or dope smokers. A cannabis cigarette, once called a ‘reefer’, is now usually known as a ‘joint’ or a ‘spliff’. TOKERS’ TIP: We don’t recommend reading this book while stoned (you’ll have probably already read this bit several times by now if you are) – if so, just look at the pictures, try not to tear up the cover for 01 roach material and follow the Tokers’ Tips.
