Die Wirkungsmacht der Krise

The book examines for the first time from a rhetorical perspective the use of the crisis-topos in public and political discourse. Based on German political party programs, the large-scale corpus study investigates how crisis is used as a strategic communication tool and offers insight in the parties' argumentation practices and their relationships with political rivals.
