In the case studies, Maier dissects each event and offers a critique and analysis of what went wrong and what went right.... Any diocesan communicator will be able to identify with these situations and perhaps be inspired to consider adopting a new, ongoing strategy of sophisticated diocesan institutional rhetoric, to prepare for the next `crisis', which will soon come. * Church, Communication and Culture * Author InformationCraig T. Maier is assistant professor in the Department of Communication & Rhetorical Studies at Duquesne University. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
