Precarious Rhetorics
OUR COLLEC TION has come together in the midst of the rise of the global Right.It will likely be received and circulate in a global context wherein this ascendency has been consolidated through an entrenched hard-right populism, marked by xenophobia and racialized social orderings, and characterized by nativist, heteronormative, hypermasculine, and heteropatriarchal leadership styles and structures.Such structures are apparent in the authoritaria…
Being-Jazz in the Middle
Jazz rhetoric can mean two things. The first is the discourse about jazz, its significance and its meaning. The second is the music itself as an unfolding form performed to an audience. Both have constitutive political effects that function through pathos prior to a distinction between subject and object. This pathos arises through in-betweenness or interality, and can be described in terms of the middle voice, Dasein, and aesthetic experience. T…
Newsworld, Riel, and the Métis: Recognition and the Limits to Reconciliation
This article examines the rhetorical character of CBC Newsworld’s 2003 “re-trial” of Métis leader Louis Riel. Specifically, it considers how the broadcast was presented as a gesture of reconciliation toward the Métis but was received by Métis spokespersons as racist or colonizing. The broadcast is analyzed through Robert Hariman’s conception of the popular trial as an occasion for the development of argumentative resources to deliberate on proble…

Law, Rhetoric, and Irony in the Formation of Canadian Civil Culture
In Rhetoric, Irony, and Law in the Formation of Canadian Civil Culture, Michael Dorland and Maurice Charland examine how, over the roughly 400-year period since the encounter of First Peoples with Europeans in North America, rhetorical or discursive fields took form in politics and constitution-making, in the formation of a public sphere, and in education and language. The study looks at how these fields changed over time within the French regime…

Postmodern Rhetorics of Technology: The Montreal Fluoridation Controversy
Montreal’s recent controversy over water fluoridation illustrates the challenge to deliberative rhetoric within postmodernity. The dispute ultimately turns on the claim to knowledge of public health officials. No non-controversial meta-narrative stands to legitimate their character and claims. Rhetorical discourse performs the impossible task of rendering the incommensurable to the court of judgment

Constitutive rhetoric: The case of thepeuple québécois
The rhetoric of Quebec sovereignty is based upon an appeal to a particular motivated subject, the Québécois. Rhetorical theory usually takes such a subject as a given. A theory of constitutive rhetoric, based on the principle of identification, can account for the constitution of subjects of this type. Such subjects, agents within ideological discourse, are interpellated or called into being through rhetorical narratives. Such narratives constitu…
Les pratiques culturelles des Québecois: Une autre image de nous-mêmes
It states the obvious to assert that Quebec has undergone massive transformations in the last quarter century, but this anthology of essays on cultural practices in Quebec offers the reader insight into the substance of this new Quebec. Fifteen authors, (excluding the editor who provides a conclusion), discuss the state of Quebec's cultural activity in their areas of specialty. The mass media are treated, of course, but so are such other forms as…
