In Citizenship and Advocacy in Technical Communication, teachers,
researchers, and practitioners will find a variety of theoretical
frameworks, empirical studies, and teaching approaches to advocacy
and citizenship. Specifically, the collection is organized around
three main themes or sections: considerations for understanding and
defining advocacy and citizenship locally and globally, engaging
with the local and global community, and introducing advocacy in a
classroom. The collection covers an expansive breadth of issues and
topics that speak to the complexities of undertaking advocacy work
in TPC, including local grant writing activities, cosmopolitanism
and global transnational rhetoric, digital citizenship and social
media use, strategic and tactical communication, and diversity and
social justice. The contributors themselves, representing fifteen
academic institutions and occupying various academic ranks, offer
nuanced definitions, frameworks, examples, and strategies for
students, scholars, practitioners, and educators who want to or are
already engaged in a variegated range of advocacy work. More so,
they reinforce the inherent humanistic values of our field and
discuss effective rhetorical and current technological tools at our
disposal. Finally, they show us how, through pedagogical approaches
and everyday mundane activities and practices, we (can) advocate
either actively or passively.
