A Communication Perspective on the Military brings into focus the
challenge of sense-making in the war state. How do military family
members talk to one another about the stress of deployment on their
lives? How do media - old and new - render the costs of war
meaningful? How is the narrative of war rhetorically constructed?
The dynamics of military family transactions, media-military
relations, and war rhetoric reveal, reinforce, and may even disrupt
U.S. war culture. Offering close analysis and thoughtful critique,
this book reflects upon the ways the meaning of war is communicated
in private lives, social relations, and public affairs. The
collection highlights three broad areas of concern: communication
in the military family; the military in the media; and rhetoric
surrounding the military. Katheryn Maguire, Roger Stahl, and Gordon
Mitchell introduce each section with overarching and integrative
literature reviews that offer directions for the field. Each
section includes six chapters reporting the latest research and
offering suggestions for practical applications. The book is a
must-have reference for military and communication scholars and an
ideal text for graduate seminars and upper division undergraduate
courses focusing on communication and the military.
