Readings on the Rhetoric of Social Protest includes thirty-five of the most significant essays from the literature. From groundbreaking theoretical works to very recent case studies, the selections reveal the evolution of a dynamic scholarship--its theoretical foundations, the debates that shape further inquiry, the critical studies that illustrate key theoretical positions. Drawing on a wide range of movements, these essays show people attempting to reform society from within. They also argue for a communication-based theory of social protest, exploring language choices and other rhetorical strategies that create leaders, inspire followers, confront power, and attract public support and sympathy--or that silence dissent, suppress uprising, or discredit protesters. The new edition reflects current issues in and perspectives on the rhetoric of social movements, as well as a wider range of historical and contemporary social movements. A revised organization highlights conceptual themes across movements and scholarship. Substantive introductions to the each chapter highlight key points, vital connections, and recurring conflicts. A selected bibliography--expanded in this edition--helps students launch their own research on social movements. The first edition of this book was reviewed in Rhetoric and Public Affairs and The Review of Communication.
