Beyond the rhetorical presidency

Edición de la obra Beyond the rhetorical presidency

With the administrations of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, and American presidency began to undergo many profound changes. Chief among those was a radical evolution in the interaction of the president with the general public. The ten essays of this volume focus on that evolution and offer thought-provoking analyses concerning the role of presidential rhetoric in passing policy, generating support, and promoting public discourse. Beyond the Rhetorical Presidency offers scholars with an interest in speech communication, political science, and history a volume that reexamines the place and significance of presidential rhetoric.
