The essays showed that governmental forces have used rhetorical strategies in simple and sophisticated ways to silence opponents. By studying which strategies are effective, how they evolve, and how they are unmasked, the authors offered a better understanding to combat the strategies in the future. This second edition of Silencing the Opposition includes: a revised introduction and conclusion, updated chapters, and two new chapters, one on the Patriot Act and one on habeas corpus of 'enemy combatants.' In these revisions and additions, Smith has arranged a valuable, timely collection appropriate for its focus on the last eight years of civil liberty reforms in the United States.Freedom of speechUnited StatesHistoryPolitical oratoryUnited StatesHistoryFreedom of speechHistory.Political oratoryHistory.323.44/30973Smith Craig R1098676MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960146403321Silencing the opposition4360992UNINA
