Reviews

This is a richly textured, theoretically sophisticated analysis of the relationship between hegemony and transgressive rhetoric. Borrowing from Bakhtin, Gramsci, Hall, Laclau, Mouffe, Nietzsche and others, as well as interrogating a wide range of contemporary critical studies in rhetoric, Foust reinvigorates social movement theory as she reconceptualizes transgressive rhetoric through the lens of anarchist tactics. The result is a ground-breaking work that has enormous heuristic potential in moving critical rhetorical scholarship forward into new territory. -- Raymie McKerrow, Ohio University
