Abstract

Using narrative inquiry to analyze the Fair Fight website, this article illuminates how localized lived experience becomes an important tool to fight electoral injustice. The author provides an assemblage of narratives from disenfranchised voters to argue that although election technologies and processes (e.g., address systems, voter registration, absentee or mail-in ballots, voter queues), poll workers, and officials may seem neutral or apolitical, they can potentially be tools of disenfranchisement.
消除选民压制的公平斗争:通过亲身经历认识选举不公
本文以叙事探究法分析“公平竞争”网站,说明本土化的生活经验如何成为对抗选举不公的重要工具。作者提供了一组被剥夺选举权的选民的叙述,认为尽管选举技术和过程(例如,地址系统,选民登记,缺席或邮寄选票,选民排队),投票工作人员和官员可能看起来中立或不涉及政治,但它们可能是剥夺选举权的工具。

期刊介绍: JBTC is a refereed journal that provides a forum for discussion of communication practices, problems, and trends in business, professional, scientific, and governmental fields. As such, JBTC offers opportunities for bridging dichotomies that have traditionally existed in professional communication journals between business and technical communication and between industrial and academic audiences. Because JBTC is designed to disseminate knowledge that can lead to improved communication practices in both academe and industry, the journal favors research that will inform professional communicators in both sectors. However, articles addressing one sector or the other will also be considered.
