Argumentation and Advocacy: The Journal of the American Forensic Association invites submissions for a special issue devoted to political campaign debates during the 2016 election cycle. Studies may examine debate content and/or effects, and analysis clearly linked to argumentation and advocacy is especially encouraged. Possible areas of examination include: presidential primary debates, general election debates, state and local campaign debates, debates and citizen engagement, analysis of debate formats, comparison of 2016 debates with debates in previous election cycles, comparison of U.S. debates with candidate debates of other nations, and the uses of social media and communication technology in conjunction with debates. Studies employing any appropriate research methodology are welcome.
Questions about the special issue may be directed to the guest editor:
