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.","PeriodicalId":51545,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Speech","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81191714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new model is needed in tandem with the robust ecological model to analyze the axiological dimension of transnational digital rhetorical circulation, i.e., how rhetorics produce and accumulate what types of value as they circulate digitally. Drawing on theories of rhetorical capital and communicative labor, this article proposes a theorization of rhetorics that circulate in digitally networked publics as an economy: the changing totality and relationships of rhetorical value produced and accumulated as a result of constant interactions among digital prosumers, technologies, labor, affect, commodities, and capital. The article also seeks to recontextualize the model of rhetorical economies in a transnational context with complex circulatory conditions. The author then reads the rhetorical economy of a Chinese nationalist cyber campaign in response to the Xinjiang cotton controversy.","PeriodicalId":51545,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Speech","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89763374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Dobbs Leak and Reproductive Justice","authors":"Emily Winderman, Atilla Hallsby","doi":"10.1080/00335630.2022.2128205","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/00335630.2022.2128205","url":null,"abstract":"OnMay 3, 2022, Emily concluded a first-year seminar on Reproductive Justice (hereafter RJ). The class brainstormed rhetorical practices that might enable and preclude meaningful coalition in the wake of Roe v. Wade’s anticipated overturn. The same day, Atilla’s rhetorical theory class reviewed “real” and “manufactured” instances of leaking. That evening, Politico published the leaked Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health draft decision. Although Alito’s leaked draft was a sensitizing moment for some, RJ activists and attorneys had anticipated the decision. Invalidating Constitutionally guaranteed rights to abortion and privacy, the leak staged an attack on stare decisis, confirmed in June with Justice Thomas’s insistence that the Court revisit other Roe-backed decisions like Obergefell v. Hodges. While many claimed the leak was unprecedented, two Roe v. Wade-related leaks occurred in the 1970s. Whereas the June 24, 2022 Dobbs decision officially overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, this essay considers the rhetorical significance of the leak. Leaks signify a dual transgressive fluidity, in the sense that information or bodily contaminants (e.g., blood, saliva) seep – both pleasurably and dangerously – across boundaries that have become porous. The body’s inherent ‘leakiness’ also means that embodied and gendered metaphors are a readily available shorthand for leaks that circumvent institutional bodies, like the Supreme Court. The Dobbs leak stages this situation: a fluid movement of information that transgressed an institutional boundary. However, given the impossibility of metaphorically suturing the institutional body by staunching the flow of information, many pundits channeled the loss of control brought on by the leak into a different bodily register. By prioritizing biologically sexed “women,” these commentors restricted coalitional language that affirmed gender fluidity and denied the personhood of the transgender and non-binary pregnant bodies also affected by Dobbs. As we argue, pundits rhetorically “sutured” the Dobbs v. Jackson leak by elevating “women” as the centralizing term for post-Roe coalitional identifications. By excluding abortion’s relevance to the more gender-fluid coalition of pregnant people, these responses also eschewed a more comprehensive RJ framework needed for future fights toward reproductive freedom. Our forum contribution traces the regressively gendered framings of the Dobbs leak in public discourse. We note especially how gender-suturing responses pre-emptively limited a broader abortion coalition. The RJ framework helps to anticipate future alignments between anti-abortion activists and trans-exclusionary feminists. We close by considering leaky coalitions that highlight the necessity of broader reproductive boundaries.","PeriodicalId":51545,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Speech","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87576537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Blending critical and creative thinking, ABR targets at harmonizing science and arts in the troubled times. ABR integrates academic research and creative art forms, specifically language arts, visual arts, and performative arts. A remarkable strength of Speaking of Race is that it embraces multiple forms of research and argumentation, including anecdotes and narratives, etc. On the one hand, this kind of research is marginalized, and criticized by some mainstream academic researchers for being non-academic and unscientific. On the other hand, it engages a wider readership, affords alternative ways to carry out academic research, and attempts to harmonize the scientific tradition and the tradition of writing in a critical and creative way. Top-tier academic journals have been publishing papers written in this style, for instance Text and Performance Quarterly, Qualitative Inquiry, Canadian Literature, Life Writing, etc.. Roberts-Miller’s book manifests the endeavor to enhance the polylithic academia. From a white scholar’s perspective, this book showcases how controversial, pervasive and tricky racism is in our daily lives, as well as how to adopt appropriate attitudes toward racism and how to confront racism in a practical and effective way. RobertMiller’s natural tendency to resort to stories in her argumentation also increases the readability of the book and conforms to the “conventions” in biblical narratives from the very beginning of Genesis. Overall, it is a high-quality book that merits recommendation.","PeriodicalId":51545,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Speech","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84123946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
