Abstract

ABSTRACT This essay contrasts the reform rhetorics that were used to legalize abortion in the US with current anger-driven rhetorics surrounding abortion rights. Applying a materialist both/and feminist perspective it argues for the ethics and efficacy of the both/and rhetorical strategies used in the reform era. It suggests replacing the radical/reform dichotomy with a spectrum that prefers relatively broadening over more narrowing rhetorics. Current narrowing rhetorics envision large segments of the populace as enemies rather than as co-citizens who have legitimate interests that should be encompassed in the rhetorical frames that one offers.

收回堕胎权的修辞策略

摘要本文对比了美国用于堕胎合法化的改革修辞与当前围绕堕胎权的愤怒驱动修辞。运用唯物主义和女权主义的观点，它论证了改革时代使用的两者和修辞策略的伦理和有效性。它建议将激进/改革的二分法替换为一个相对更广泛的范围，而不是更狭隘的修辞。目前狭隘的修辞学将大部分民众视为敌人，而不是拥有合法利益的共同公民，这些利益应该包含在一个人提供的修辞学框架中。

期刊介绍： The Quarterly Journal of Speech (QJS) publishes articles and book reviews of interest to those who take a rhetorical perspective on the texts, discourses, and cultural practices by which public beliefs and identities are constituted, empowered, and enacted. Rhetorical scholarship now cuts across many different intellectual, disciplinary, and political vectors, and QJS seeks to honor and address the interanimating effects of such differences. No single project, whether modern or postmodern in its orientation, or local, national, or global in its scope, can suffice as the sole locus of rhetorical practice, knowledge and understanding.
