Vernacular Voices: The Rhetoric of Publics and Public Spheres (Studies in Rhetoric/Communication). Este artículo no está disponible.Vernacular Voices: The Rhetoric of Publics and Public Spheres (Studies in Rhetoric/Communication)

In the two decades since Vernacular Voices was first published, much has changed: in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, US presidents have increasingly taken unilateral power to act; the internet and new media have blossomed; and globalization has raised challenges to the autonomy of nation states. In a new preface, Hauser shows how, in an era of shared, global crises, we understand publics, how public spheres form and function, and the possibilities for vernacular expressions of public opinion lie at the core of lived democracy.
