How do leading Labour figures strive to communicate with and
influence the electorate? Why have some proven more successful than
others in advancing their ideological arguments? How do orators
seek to connect with different audiences in different settings such
as parliament, party conference and through the media? This
thoroughly researched and highly readable collection
comprehensively evaluates these questions as well as providing an
extensive interrogation of the political and intellectual
significance of oratory and rhetoric in the post-war Labour Party.
This collection evaluates the oratory and rhetoric of twelve
leading figures from Labour politics: Aneurin Bevan, Hugh
Gaitskell, Harold Wilson, Barbara Castle, James Callaghan, Michael
Foot, Tony Benn, Neil Kinnock, John Smith, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown
and Ed Miliband. Each chapter explores how its subject attempted to
use oratory to advance their agenda within the party and beyond.
Students of British politics, Labour history and communication
studies will find this volume essential reading. -- .
