Political Problems and Personalities in Contemporary Maryland
Lexington Books (Verlag)
978-1-6669-2897-6 (ISBN)
Political Problems and Personalities in Contemporary Maryland provides a comprehensive rhetorical analysis of contemporary politics and political communication in Maryland at both the state and local levels. Theodore F. Sheckels and Carl Hyden approach rhetoric in a broader sense, arguing that actions by political players – including decisions on housing policy, urban redevelopment policy, and transportation policy—are not in a separate category from their messages. In many cases, they argue, actions are messages, often with important material consequences. Rather than focusing solely on previous or upcoming elections, as political communication has traditionally been examined, Sheckels and Hyden give considerable space to non-election topics, responding to current shifts in political communication scholarship and encouraging others to examine political communication at the local and state levels elsewhere in the United States. Scholars of communication, political science, rhetoric, and history will find this book of particular interest.
Theodore F. Sheckels is Charles J. Potts Professor Emeritus of Social Science and professor emeritus of English and communication studies at Randolph-Macon College. Carl Hyden is associate dean for administration in the School of Global Journalism & Communication at Morgan State University.
