New Book on Rhetoric in Neoliberalism

Kendall R Phillips, kphillip@syr.edu

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to announce another exciting new book from the Palgrave Macmillan series on "Rhetoric, Politics, and Society:"

Kim Hong Nguyen's edited volume Rhetoric in Neoliberalism brings together a group of outstanding scholars to explore crucial rhetorical dynamics in contemporary neoliberalism. The volume examines and applies classical and contemporary concepts of rhetorical theory and criticism to the context of late capitalism. Each contributor shows how discourse, its subjects, and power relations are irrevocably transformed by neoliberalism. The collection analyzes a range of discourses and phenomena in neoliberalism including: higher education reforms, computational culture, Occupy Wall Street protests, the activism of Warren Buffett, and the 9-11 Truth Movement.

More information about the volume and ordering can be found at: http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319398495#reviews
