Disciplining the Poor: Neoliberal Paternalism and the

Disciplining the Poor explains the transformation of poverty governance over the past forty years—why it happened,how it works today,and how it affects people. In the process,it clarifies the central role of race in this transformation and develops a more precise account of how race shapes poverty governance in the post–civil rights era. Connecting welfare reform to other policy developments,the authors analyze diverse forms of data to explicate the racialized origins,operations,and con

Classical Greek Rhetorical Theory and the Disciplining of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Timmerman, David M. / Schiappa, Edward, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book contributes to the history of classical rhetoric by focusing on how key terms helped to conceptualize and organize the study and teaching of oratory. David Timmerman and Edward Schiappa demonstrate that the intellectual and political history of Greek rhetorical theory can be enhanced by a better understanding of the emergence of terms of art in texts about persuasive speaking and argumentation. The authors provide a series of studies to support their argument. They describe Plato 's disciplining of dialgesthai into the Art of Dialectic, Socrates alternative vision of philosophia, and Aristotle 's account of demegoria and symboule as terms for political deliberation. The authors also revisit competing receptions of the Rhetoric to Alexander. Additionally, they examine the argument over when the different parts of oration were formalized in rhetorical theory, illustrating how an old school focus on vocabulary can provide fresh perspectives on persistent questions.

The Working Poor: Invisible in America

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Shipler, David K., PUBLISHER: Knopf Publishing Group, ""Most of the people I write about in this book do not have the luxury of rage. They are caught in exhausting struggles. Their wages do not lift them far enough from poverty to improve their lives, and their lives, in turn, hold them back. The term by which they are usually described, 'working poor, ' should be an oxymoron. Nobody who works hard should be poor in America." --from the Introduction " From the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning "Arab and Jew, "a new book that presents a searing, intimate portrait of working American families struggling against insurmountable odds to escape poverty. As David K. Shipler makes clear in this powerful, humane study, the invisible poor are engaged in the activity most respected in American ideology--hard, honest work. But their version of the American Dream is a nightmare: low-paying, dead-end jobs; the profound failure of government to improve upon decaying housing, health care, and education; the failure of families to break the patterns of child abuse and substance abuse. Shipler exposes the interlocking problems by taking us into the sorrowful, infuriating, courageous lives of the poor--white and black, Asian and Latino, citizens and immigrants. We encounter them every day, for they do jobs essential to the American economy. We meet drifting farmworkers in North Carolina, exploited garment workers in New Hampshire, illegal immigrants trapped in the steaming kitchens of Los Angeles restaurants, addicts who struggle into productive work from the cruel streets of the nation's capital--each life another aspect of a confounding, far-reaching urgent national crisis. And unlike most works on poverty, this one delves into the calculations of some employers as well--their razor-thin profits, their anxieties about competition from abroad, their frustrations in finding qualified workers. This impassioned book not only dissects the problems, but makes pointed, informed recommendations for change. It is a book that stands to make a difference.
