Synopsis
This course examines the institutional and rhetorical structuring of communication in the exercise of power and control in society. The mechanisms by which communicative interactions contribute to social integration, maintenance or subversion of relations of dominance and subordination, privilege and disadvantage will be considered in the context of competing theoretical frameworks making explanatory claims with respect to these phenomena.
