Global Women Leaders: Studies in Feminist Political Rhetoric
demonstrates the ways in which women have used political rhetoric
and political discourse to provide leadership, or assert their
right to leadership, on a global level. This collection fits into
the robust research area of international political women and their
use of language in gaining and maintaining political power. It
casts a wider net in terms of discussing women's efforts to assert
and preserve their roles of authority, particularly when their
audiences may perceive their authority as illegitimate due to
gender. Chapters dedicated to Elizabeth II and Sheikha Moza Bint
Nasser discuss the more traditional ways in which women leaders use
language to construct political power. Other chapters focus on
women who serve as political activists, either individually or as
part of a group, including Aasma Mahfouz of the Egyptian Revolution
of 2011 and the women who help direct United Nations policy through
their speeches in the General Assembly. Global Women Leaders will
appeal to scholars of political communication and international
rhetoric.
