The War We Lost and the Revolution Yet to Come
This essay offers a vision for higher education based on two convergent ideas: (a) that progressives lost the war on education by failing to adequately engage, much less counter, the existing right-wing narrative; and (b) this narrative loss opens the possibility of a creative revolution capable of transforming education. I forward the idea that what is needed in this bleak time of political fear and economic austerity is a rethinking, and rework…
Three Cancer Poems
The Fatherland Museum
How do we make sense out of the lives of our fathers? Do we rely on a well-worn family narrative that omits complications or unresolved tensions or deeper mysteries, or do we question what we claim to know and dig deeper for details? If we choose to reenter the past with new questions, what might we find there? What artifacts, stories, secrets, and memories do we bring into the revised narrative? And what might be the longer term effects of revis…
Master Narratives of Islamist Extremism
This volume introduces the concept of Islamist extremist 'master narratives' and offers a method for identifying and analyzing them. Drawing on rhetorical and narrative theories, the chapters examine
What is the Role of the Communication Discipline in Social Justice, Community Engagement, and Public Scholarship? A Visit to the CM Café
In early December of 2010, the virtual doors of the CM Cafe were swung open. Seven scholars were invited to the opening—Sarah Dempsey (University of North Carolina), Mohan Dutta (Purdue University)
The War of Ideas and the Battle of Narratives: A Comparison of Extremist Storytelling Structures
In this essay, we examine the core narratives and rhetorical techniques that extremist groups use to explain their worldview. We show that extremists in North America as well as throughout the world, regardless of their political or religious background, demonstrate great similarities in their construction and deployment of narratives. We also identify key features of what we call 'the root war metaphor' that characterizes extremist narratives an…
Writing like a Guy in Textville: A Personal Reflection on Narrative Seduction
This narrative explores the idea of “narrative seduction.” Though an autoethnographic account the author shows how he learned to read and think about the masculine qualities of prose associated with “writing like a man” in the academy, and how this insight led him to locate his ethnographic voice in opposition to it. The narrative includes some stylistic observations about the author's own “seductive” prose and its relationship to intimate listen…
Twice Betrayed by the Truth: A Narrative About the Cultural Similarities Between the Cold War and the Global War on Terror
This narrative explores the relationship of some forgotten legacies of Cold War (particularly Vietnam-era) politics, language, and culture to the current Global War on Terror (GWOT). One theme that ties these historical eras together is the rise of secrecy among power elites and the resulting lack of available truth capable of informing policies and practices used to justify war abroad and spread fear and anxiety at home. The implications of this…
Creating the Right Reality: Communication Message Strategies and the Republican Party
This critical essay explores the parallels between the communicative strategies and methods of totalitarian movements and those of the modern American conservative movement. The Origins of Totalitarianism by Hannah Arendt (1968) serves as the standard by which the authors investigate the properties of such strategies. The authors find that the conservative movement in general and the Republican Party specifically, though not totalitarian, exhibit…

Why We Must Win the War on Terror: Communication, Narrative, and the Future of National Security
This article analyzes the political rhetoric of the War on Terror from a communication theories perspective within a cultural framework. Beginning with a reading of President Bush's rhetoric using ideas drawn from Charles R. Berger's reduction of uncertainty theory, the author proposes the international and pragmatic utility of a more inclusive and less fear-inspired narrative alternative. This narrative alternative can and should serve as a comm…
Narrative Inheritance: A Nuclear Family With Toxic Secrets
A narrative inheritance refers to stories given to children by and about family members. Using the case of his own “nuclear family,” the author explores the power of these stories in our lives, particularly when they are later shown to have been constructed out of serious omissions, distortions, secrets, and lies. The implications of this personal ethnographic account speak to issues of family communication, narrative inquiry, and the relationshi…
Deep Play in a Poker Rally: A Sunday among the Ferraristi of Long Island
This article provides a narrative account of a "poker rally" conducted by Ferrari owners and enthusiasts on Long Island, New York. Evoking Clifford Geertz's treatment of a Balinese cockfight, the author uses this elite event to interpret this ritual drama experientially and textually, thus offering a reading of Ferrari culture and of some persistent problems associated, ever since Geertz's essay, with narrative ethnography

Writing the American Ineffable, or the Mystery and Practice of Feng Shui in Everyday Life
The ancient practice of feng shui is an interpretive framework used by practitioners to channel positive energies into and through various environments, therefore altering or changing individuals' fortunes. This article describes a variety of feng shui applications in relation to beliefs about the role of magic, mystery, and order in American life
Casing the Academy for Community
One of the current topics informing a sense of academic disenchantment is the lack of community apparent in many academic settings. This personal narrative recounts my experiences searching for community in the academy and focuses on the central role of writing and speaking in that process. Five lessons about the concept of community are derived from these accumulated experiences and are offered here as a way of reformulating a narrative theory o…
