The Presidency And The Rhetoric Of Foreign Crisis (Studies In Rhetoric/Communication),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The Presidency and the Rhetoric of Foreign Crisis examines presidential crisis managementor the way U.S. presidents portray foreign crises to the American publicas a potent tool for the accumulation, and at times the forfeiture, of political power. Arguing that it is largely through presidential communication that foreign crises become 'real' for American citizens, Bostdorff does not claim that presidents fabricate crises but rather that they vigorously advance their version of the crisis to the American public in order to rally support for their foreign policies. Bostdorff contends that presidential language can heighten the significance of events that otherwise would attract little public attentionsuch as a coup on the tiny Caribbean island of Grenadaand thereby persuade citizens to support U.S. military intervention and to view the commander in chief as a decisive, victorious leader.To prove her assertions, Bostdorff presents case studies from six successive administrations. Beginning with Kennedy and the Cuban missile crisis of 1962, she examines Johnson and the Gulf of Tonkin, Nixon and Cambodia, Ford and the Mayaguez, Carter and Iran, and Reagan and Grenada. Concluding with an evaluation of Bush and Panama, Bostdorff identifies the recurring themes that defined crisis rhetoric, explains how that rhetoric encourages particular public reactions, and raises disturbing questions about the implications for the American polity.
