Rhetoric, Media, and the Narratives of US Foreign Policy : Making Enemies, Hardback Book

Rhetoric, Media, and the Narratives of US Foreign Policy : Making Enemies Hardback

Part of the Routledge Studies in US Foreign Policy series

Hardback

Description

Rhetoric, Media, and the Narratives of US Foreign Policy: Making Enemies studies the process of communicating threats to the US public and explores when and why the American public believes another country or regime is a threat.

Through a comparative and historical study, the author focuses on how the media environment enables and constrains rhetorical strategies deployed to construct, reproduce, and change narratives about a threat.

Recent literature on threat inflation, securitization, and critical security studies returned to the concept of "threat." Building on this renewed conceptual attention, this book examines why and how policy makers and other public figures, in particular the President, convince the public about a threat and will be of interest to students and academics in the disciplines of political science, international relations, foreign policy, security studies, and contemporary history.
