Der Fokus der Jugendsprachforschung liegt auf dem Gesprachsverhalten in weiblichen und mannlichen Peergruppen, Analysen gemischter Gruppen erfolgten bisher nicht. Diese Studie schliesst diese Forschungslucke und untersucht die Sprachhandlungsmuster Lastern, Frotzeln und Bloedeln in gemischtgeschlechtlichen jugendlichen Kleingruppen zweier Altersklassen (12-15 Jahre, 16-19 Jahre). Wie werden Laster-, Frotzel- und Bloedelaktivitaten in getrennt- und gemischtgeschlechtlichen Situationen sprachlich ausgestaltet? Welche Funktionen nehmen sie ein? Auf Grundlage des empirischen Materials werden gendertypische Merkmale des Lasterns, Frotzelns und Bloedelns sowie verschiedene Konzepte zur Versprachlichung des Doing Gender unter Jugendlichen herausgearbeitet und diskutiert.

Argentinien hat eine uber 100-jahrige Erfahrung als Einwanderungsland. Vom ausgehenden 19. Jahrhundert an liessen sich mehr als sechs Millionen Menschen, vornehmlich aus Europa, in Argentinien nieder. Heute kommen die meisten Einwanderer dagegen aus Lateinamerika und Asien. In Politik, Massenmedien und im Alltag treffen sie auf eine breite Front der Ablehnung. Diese Untersuchung gibt einen Einblick in den Einwanderungsdiskurs der 1990-er Jahre. Sie erforscht allgemeine sprachliche und interaktive Verfahren der Bildung von Gruppen im Gesprach und orientiert sich methodisch an dem konversationsanalytischen Konzept der Membership Categorization. Sie zeigt, wie die Konstruktion von Wir- und Fremdgruppen im Gesprach miteinander verzahnt ist: Wie konstituieren argentinische Sprecher die Gruppen von Einwanderern und Einheimischen? Wie arbeiten sie im Gesprach heraus, was diese Gruppen unterscheidet? Wie definieren sie vor dem Hintergrund der 'neuen' Einwanderung ihre nationale Identitat und welche Konsequenzen hat dies fur die Formulierung der Ablehnung? Diese Fragen werden anhand von Alltagsgesprachen detailliert beantwortet.

Die in diesem Band versammelten Beitrage befassen sich mit Politischer Theorie, genauer: mit der Geschichte der Politischen Theorie unter dem spezifischen Aspekt ihres Interesses an Rhetorik bzw. offentlicher Rede. An ausgewahlten Beispielen politischen Denkens von Platon bis Luhmann wird versucht, dieses politiktheoretische Interesse an Rhetorik zu konkretisieren und in entsprechenden Funktionskonzepten politischen Redens modellhaft abzubilden.Die Geschichte dieser Modelle macht deutlich, dass sich in jeder politischen Rhetorik ein bestimmtes Politikverstandnis vorgangig zur Geltung bringt."

What forces bring ordinary people together in public to make their voices heard? What means do they use to break through impediments to democratic participation? Unruly Rhetorics is a collection of essays from scholars in rhetoric, communication, and writing studies inquiring into conditions for activism, political protest, and public assembly. An introduction drawing on Jacques Ranciere and Judith Butler explores the conditions under which civil discourse cannot adequately redress suffering or injustice. The essays offer analyses of "unruliness" in case studies from both twenty-first-century and historical sites of social-justice protest. The collection concludes with an afterword highlighting and inviting further exploration of the ethical, political, and pedagogical questions unruly rhetorics raise. Examining multiple modes of expression - embodied, print, digital, and sonic - Unruly Rhetorics points to the possibility that unruliness, more than just one of many rhetorical strategies within political activity, is constitutive of the political itself.
