Rhet-Ops: Rhetoric and Information Warfare

Abstract

In this edited voulme, authors seek to document and analyze how state and non-state actors leverage digital rhetoric as a twenty-first-century weapon of war.Rhet Ops offer readers a chance to focus on the human dimension of rhetorical practice within mobile technologies and social networks: to reflect not only on the durable question of what it means to conduct oneself ethically as a speaker or writer, but also what it means to learn the art of rhetoric as a means to engage adversaries in war and conflict.
