"Rhetoric and Popular Culture" offers a selection of readings that explores the political dimensions of popular culture. Beginning with a theoretical framework, the text moves through a number of case studies designed to explore a variety of power struggles. Many of these struggles take place on the terrain of advertising - both the struggle to leverage culture for commercial purposes and the resistant practices it inspires. Topics extending from this analysis include: institutions of cultural production; popular culture and social movements; representations of race, gender, and class; music, rebellion, and moral panics; the politics of the camera, reality TV, and voyeurism; food and everyday living spaces; representations of war; the role of intellectual property law; and others. Roger Stahl (Ph.D. Penn State University, 2004) is an Associate Professor in Speech Communication at the University of Georgia. His research interests include media and rhetoric with a particular interest in advertising, propaganda, and public relations. Dr. Stahl has devoted much of his effort to understanding the contemporary presentation of war. His recent book, "Militainment, Inc.: War, Media, and Popular Culture" (Routledge, 2010), examines how war has entered the landscape of consumerism. His work has appeared in numerous journals including "Rhetoric and Public Affairs, Quarterly Journal of Speech" and "Critical Studies in Media Communication," as well as a series of critical documentary films.
