Reviews

I have read the book with interest and enthusiasm. It provides a great selection of actual research on rhetoric and communication from very different traditions, departments, methodologies, and angles. Rhetorical Citizenship as a conceptual frame brings thematic cohesion and possibilities for comparison and synergy. The dual focus on the receptive and the participatory aspects of civic interaction is a strong point. --Jaap de Jong, Leiden University

The volume emphasizes the language-oriented rhetorical notion of citizenship and shifts us away from formal, legal-oriented, state-centric definitions. It makes a strong case for why attention to rhetoric is useful in understanding and addressing contemporary public controversies. This is a major collection of works within the space of rhetoric and communication inquiry. The essays are accessible to scholars and students as well. --G.
