About This Book
Reject the Rhetoric (2012) examines how word choice and framing shape our perception of economic matters. Drawing on her communications research, Anat Shenker-Osorio tackles a persistent puzzle: what allows conservatives to dominate conversations about the economy in America, even after the financial collapse and Great Recession exposed severe inequality and systemic failures? This work dissects the rhetoric used across the political divide to explain how language determines who wins economic arguments.
