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.
