Abstract:
In the textbook, in section I, the norms and standards of the official business style, genre templates, rules for preparing documents, and the basics of business ethics are set out in a simple, accessible form. It highlights aspects of business communication that, despite their importance, are not reflected in manuals on similar topics. This is information about the problems of adequate understanding of information, working with business terminology, and also gives an assessment of business jargon. Special attention is paid to the forms of information compression in the business text. The theoretical positions are illustrated by relevant examples from various areas of institutional communication. Section II offers a system of exercises for working with the voice as the main tool of business communication. This is the development of good diction and correct reading skills, exercises for mastering the basic rules of Russian orthoepy. Recommendations are given for preparing for a successful oral presentation. The features of phrase construction, the length of the phrase, contact-setting means, the rhetorical potential of the influencing speech, working with special vocabulary and digital information are considered. Meets the requirements of the federal state educational standards of higher education of the latest generation. For undergraduate students studying in management-related specialties.

Wilcox, Phill. Heritage and the Making of Political Legitimacy in Laos. NL Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.5117/9789463727020.

Full text
Abstract:
The Lao People’s Democratic Republic is nearly fifty years old, and one of the few surviving one-party socialist states. Nearly five decades on from its revolutionary birth, the Lao population continues to build futures in and around a political landscape that maintains socialist rhetoric on one hand and capitalist economics on the other. Contemporary Lao politics is marked by the use of cultural heritage as a source of political legitimacy. Researched through long term detailed ethnography in the former royal capital of Luang Prabang, itself a UNESCO recognised World Heritage Site since 1995, this book takes a fresh look at issues of legitimacy, heritage and national identity for different members of the Lao population. It argues that the political system has become sufficiently embedded to avoid imminent risk of collapse but suggests that it is facing new challenges primarily in the form of rising Chinese influence in Laos.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the role of rhetorical culture in the Second Sophistic. In the Greco-Roman world of the imperial period, rhetoric was an educational system, a social practice, and a mental tool. Public speaking was omnipresent. The figure of the sophist combined literary activity and political influence: rhetoric was their secret link. Encomium—the principal rhetorical innovation of the Second Sophistic—was a refined, coded instrument, which not only served to express approval, but also aimed at communicating veiled messages. The phenomenon of the Second Sophistic did not disappear in the third century ce and some sophistic figures continued to flourish in the successive periods, a fact which motivates a current scholarly debate about “Third Sophistic.”

Abstract:
This chapter contends that antiprison and anti-death penalty activists need to reexamine their rhetorical habits and political strategies if they hope to achieve any lasting change in the nation's prison system. It draws from literature theorizing the death penalty's place in the prison-industrial complex, rhetoric of anti-death penalty activists, and personal experiences of grassroots abolitionist organizers to critique the prevalence of LWOP (life imprisonment without the possibility of parole) in the death-penalty abolitionist movement. Specifically, the chapter argues that while the alternative of LWOP serves as an understandable rhetorical strategy to spread the anti-death penalty gospel to more ambivalent audiences, it undermines a central organizational posture of the abolitionist cause: understanding capital punishment as only the most macabre expression of a colossal and broken prison-industrial complex.

Full text
Abstract:
Dual Penal State is about the collective failure to address the fundamental challenge of legitimating the threat and use of penal violence in modern liberal states. The first part of the book investigates various ways in which criminal law doctrine and scholarship have managed not to meet the continuing challenge of legitimating state penal power: the violent violation of the autonomy of the very persons upon whose autonomy the legitimacy of state power supposedly rests in a state under the rule of law (Rechtsstaat). Part I focuses primarily on German criminal law, and German criminal law science, with regular comparative glances beyond the German penal system. Chapter 2 highlights several key rhetorical strategies in modern criminal law doctrine that divert attention from the troubling—and possibly irresolvable—paradox of state punishment in a modern liberal democracy.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter contributes to ‘second-generation’ accounts of depoliticization through the critical assessment of the meta-governance of English local authorities under conditions of austerity. It draws on the grammar of post-structuralism to examine the case of a county council and how in the context of the 2010 public spending cuts, its corporate centre sought, but ultimately failed, to implement a system of ‘integrated commissioning’. The chapter focuses on the discursive and rhetorical strategies to de-contest this project of organizational change, foregrounding how the rhetoric of austerity was deployed to depoliticize proposals for change. Such strategies of depoliticization, as counter-attempts to decouple austerity from integrated commissioning demonstrates, are always open to contestation, such that the complex interactions of politicization and depoliticization strategies cannot be divorced from accounts of local agency and the politics of hegemony. This chapter thus concludes against hasty characterizations of the depoliticizing practices of neo-liberal meta-governance.

Abstract:
Prison Power centers imprisonment in the history of black liberation as a rhetorical, theoretical, physical, and media resource as activists developed movement tactics and ideology to counter white supremacy. In highlighting imprisonment as a site for both political and personal transformation, Prison Power underscores how imprisonment shaped movement leaders by influencing their political analysis and organizational strategies. The book suggests that prison became the critical space for the transformation from civil rights to Black Power, especially as southern civil rights activists faced setbacks in achieving equality. In centering the prison as a locus of political inquiry, Black Power activists produced autobiographical writings, essays, and letters about and from prison beginning with the early sit-in movement. Prison Power introduces the critical optic of the “Black Power vernacular” to describe how Black Power activists deployed rhetorical forms in their writings that invented new forms of black identification and encouraged support for black liberation from prison. In using Black Power vernacular forms, imprisoned activists improved their visibility while simultaneously documenting the racist abuses of the judicial system. This new vernacular emerged to force various publics to acknowledge and end the massive brutality perpetrated against black people in prison and in the streets in the name of law and order thereby helping to shore up support for Black Power organizations and initiatives.

Full text
Abstract:
Gassendi argues against universals and claims that the work traditionally thought to require them can in fact be done by general ideas. His arguments against universals are puzzling because they are almost entirely aimed at the doctrine of universals in re, a kind of realism which none of his contemporaries accepted. This chapter argues that Gassendi’s attack on universals is mainly intended to serve a rhetorical function—to emphasize the newness of his system and its anti-Aristotelian credentials. The chapter also provides an explanation of Gassendi’s theory of general ideas, focusing on its application to natural kinds. Finally, it analyzes Gassendi’s distinction between two different kinds of general ideas and how it bears on the distinction between intellect and imagination.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 surveys the essential historical, political, and linguistic conditions of Kievan Rus′ from its conversion to Christianity in the tenth to eleventh centuries, and establishment of monasteries and scribal culture, to the rise of Muscovy in the fifteenth century. The impact of Byzantine legacy on writing as a source of translation and emulation raises questions about the definition of literature in the medieval period. The chapter discusses why the application of the modern idea of the genre system is problematic, arguing that other criteria of literariness, encapsulated in the author-function, apply, and that even within a copying culture rhetorical strategies can lend emotional credibility to anonymous compilations, while prayers and tales of journeys convey highly literary and personal sense of identity.

Abstract:
One of the most striking features of Buddhism was its impact on Chinese funeral and mortuary culture and practice. For example, the portrait eulogy and its related ritual practice transformed from an indigenous tradition to a hybrid tradition. Although both the posthumous portrait and the portrait eulogy appeared in pre-Buddhist Chinese history, they entered traditional funeral rites and eventually became a Buddhist reinvention due to the efforts of both monks and literati. During the third to the sixth centuries, the portrait eulogy in Chinese society experienced a twofold transformation, from the rhetorical tool of political and social value system to the cultural and religious tool of social and family commemorations, and also from the part of the government-sponsored political practice to the part of private and individual ritual practice.

Abstract:
This chapter highlights the confluence of territory, sovereignty and state-building in South Asia with the international politics of the Cold War. It deconstructs the idea of international cooperation in the Indus Basin, asking how the framework for accommodating competing Indian and Pakistani demands become discursively framed as “cooperation”, and how the Indus Waters Treaty acquired a positive reputation despite its severe limitations. The chapter analyses an ambitious 1951 plan for unifying Indian and Pakistani management of the Indus system by David E. Lilienthal, a prominent American technocrat. Analysing the plan’s implicit assumptions about scale and the basin’s political geography, it argues that the principle of cooperation was as much a rhetorical device as a real relationship. Even though it helped lure India and Pakistan to the World Bank’s negotiating table, cooperation was quickly abandoned.

Abstract:
Through a diachronic analysis of the textual traditions for the Aṭṭhaka and Pārāyaṇa, we have now seen that the treatment of the category Brahman in the Buddhist tradition changed over time, reflecting the emergence of a bifurcation between the categories śramaṇa and Brahman. This chapter explains how the conception of Brahmans and śramaṇas as two mutually antagonistic groups arose. Building upon the suggestion of other scholars that the varṇa system was a rhetorical tool used by householder Brahmans to set the terms of debate, it argues that the genre of early Buddhist texts in which the Buddha refutes the ideological claims of householder Brahmans (“encounter dialogs”) was self-defeating because it implicitly ceded the category Brahman to the Buddha’s opponents, simply by allowing them to frame the debate.

Abstract:
This chapter provides a rhetorical analysis of “consciousness-raising hip-hop.” Merging personal stories with an encyclopedic knowledge of contemporary pop culture, it argues that a politically savvy subgenre of hip-hop artists are raising awareness about incarceration in the black community and producing effective strategies for community activism. The hip-hop movement plays an important role in illuminating the problems of the prison-industrial complex by creating spaces of prison protest and modeling sources of community care. The analysis of hip-hop focuses on the artists, music, and (life)styles that promote a type of citizen-orator that is Ciceronian in character. Particular attention is given to those hip-hop artists who fit the definition of “consciousness-raising” by providing hope to prisoners and communities working to transform the U.S. criminal-justice system.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the way that the regime used its institutions and authoritarian systems to propagate its Ba’thist interpretation of religion. The chapter discusses the differences between Islamism and Ba’thist ideas about Islam. It demonstrates that the latter was interpreted through the lens of Arab nationalism. The rhetoric and symbols that the regime employed were embedded within authoritarian structures that were not always visible to the public. These structures were necessary to police the boundaries of acceptable religious discourse because the Ba’thist interpretation of Islam was not a traditional interpretation of the religion. Therefore, the regime needed to prevent critical discourse on Ba’thist Islam that would expose it as significantly different from the ways in which the religion had traditionally been interpreted in the region. This policing took place not only in mosques but also in the media and in textbooks for schools.

Abstract:
Early Christian political philosophy is not a unified, theoretical, and coherent system, but is embedded in a range of Christian works of apology, theology, and exegesis. Literate (and therefore elite) Christians from the apologists to Augustine were subject to a range of political and social pressures, and their political thinking was often contingent and incidental. What is the ultimate goal of political life for Christians? What is the good life for Christians? Between Constantine's reign and that of Theodosius at the close of the fourth century, emperors veered from the pious to the “heretical,” with a single pagan interruption. It was a common rhetorical conceit for Christians to redefine philosophy as Christianity, and one that became more urgent during Julian's reign. He attempted to wrest Greek philosophy and culture from the Christians for his revived paganism, dubbed “Hellenism,” and even barred Christians from teaching in his school edict of 362. This article focuses on early Christian political philosophy as well as ecclesiology, eschatology, and asceticism.
