This is an interdisciplinary journal devoted to the history, theory, and criticism of public discourse. Arenas of rhetorical investigation might include, but are by no means limited to, campaigns for social, political, environmental, or economic justice; modes of resistance to those campaigns; situated instances of executive leadership; legislative and judicial deliberations; comparative rhetoric; transnational diplomacy; digital circulation and mediation of public discourse; and/or constitution of political and social identities.
Critical, analytical, or interpretive essays examining symbolic influences in any historical period (including the contemporary) anywhere in the world are included, as well as articles that interrogate dynamics of power and privilege, voice and voicelessness, oppression, and resistance as well as axes of identity such as race, gender, sexuality, ability, citizenship, and class, as these take form in concrete rhetorical situations.
