Vernacular voices

"Democracy is grounded on the principle that public opinion should influence the course of society. Yet this opinion, its content, and its representation are difficult to define and interpret. Vernacular Voices: The Rhetoric of Publics and Public Spheres discusses the role of citizen voices in steering a democracy through an examination of the rhetoric of publics - active segments of society that influence the "general climate" of public dialogue - and of the associated public spheres and public opinion."--Jacket.
