Res Rhetorica 4/2016 : RHETORIC AND INSTITUTIONS

A democratic public sphere requires its institutions to be transparent and accessible to the public, However, the interests of administrators and of citizens are not always aligned. Powerful interest groups, ideologues and bureaucracies can perpetuate dominance and mystify divisions under the guise of institutional or organizational culture. Specific rhetoric is usually mobilized to achieve such purposes. But rhetoric, or rhetorical criticism, may also be used to expose the paradoxes, abnormalities and abuses within institutional discourses. Tracing good and bad practices of institutional discourse has always been within the scope of rhetorical scholarship. The 4/2016 issue of Res Rhetorica will be devoted to exploring historical and current trends in institutional rhetoric and offering rhetorical criticism of institutional discourses in various domains of public life.
