A one-stop source for scholars and advanced students who want to get the latest and best overview and discussion of how organizations use rhetoricWhile the disciplinary study of rhetoric is alive and well, there has been curiously little specific interest in the rhetoric of organizations. This book seeks to remedy that omission. It presents a research collection created by the insights of leading scholars on rhetoric and organizations while discussing state-of-the-art insights from disciplines that have and will continue to use rhetoric. Beginning with an introduction to the topic, The Handbook of Organizational Rhetoric and Communication offers coverage of the foundations and macro-contexts of rhetoric—as well as its use in organizational communication, public relations, marketing, management and organization theory. It then looks at intellectual and moral foundations without which rhetoric could not have occurred, discussing key concepts in rhetorical theory. The book then goes on to analyze the processes of rhetoric and the challenges and strategies involved. A section is also devoted to discussing rhetorical areas or genres—namely contextual application of rhetoric and the challenges that arise, such as strategic issues for management and corporate social responsibility. The final part seeks to answer questions about the book’s contribution to the understanding of organizational rhetoric. It also examines what perspectives are lacking, and what the future might hold for the study of organizational rhetoric. Examines the advantages and perils of organizations that seek to project their voices in order to shape society to their benefitsContains chapters working in the tradition of rhetorical criticism that ask whether organizations’ rhetorical strategies have fulfilled their organizational and societal valueDiscusses the importance of obvious, traditional, nuanced, and critically valued strategies such as rhetorical interaction in ways that benefit discourseExplores the potential, risks, paradoxes, and requirements of engagementReflects the views of a team of scholars from across the globeFeatures contributions from organization-centered fields such as organizational communication, public relations, marketing, management, and organization theoryThe Handbook of Organizational Rhetoric and Communication will be an ideal resource for advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and scholars studying organizational communications, public relations, management, and rhetoric.

Finally, the meaning of the phrases “freedom of expression” and “freedom of the press” are examined in the context of national constitutions and international human rights instruments.The Handbook of Communication Rights, Law, and Ethics provides readers with: A diverse, global perspective on how communication rights are protected and challenged around the worldA universal vision of communication rights that encourages dialogue rather than confrontationA comparison of the American First Amendment of the Constitution with European communication rights theories and other legal traditions around the worldAn exploration of the frontiers of communication rights concepts, terminology, jurisdiction, and territorialityPerfect for professors, graduate students, doctoral students, and postdoctoral researchers studying communication rights and freedom of expression around the world, The Handbook of Communication Rights, Law, and Ethics also belongs on the bookshelves of researchers studying issues surrounding freedom of the press in North America, Europe, and Latin America.

Presents groundbreaking approaches for bridging engineering expertise and human-centered communication in infrastructure systems Infrastructure systems sustain daily life yet are often overlooked until they fail, at which point communication gaps can hinder effective responses and solutions. The Handbook of Infrastructure Communication addresses this critical challenge by establishing ”infrastructure communication” as a distinct interdisciplinary field. Bringing together insights from engineering, communication science, and social science, this handbook offers practical frameworks for translating complex technical information across disciplinary and stakeholder boundaries. The Handbook is organized into six parts, covering foundations of infrastructure communication, physical systems such as water, transportation, and energy, digital communication ecosystems, social networks, cross-cultural strategies, and crisis communication during disasters. Each section combines theoretical analysis with applied examples, including discussions of underserved communities, the integration of AI in infrastructure, and the unique vulnerabilities exposed during extreme weather events. The contributors—engineers, communication researchers, social justice experts, and practitioners—offer diverse perspectives while embedding human-centered approaches within infrastructure planning and management. Throughout the book, in-depth yet accessible chapters demonstrate how effective communication can secure investments, enhance resilience, and ensure infrastructure meets the needs of society at large. Equipping readers to foster collaboration and create infrastructure that is technically sound and socially supported, this reference work: Examines social and cultural contexts that shape public acceptance and equitable access to infrastructureProvides frameworks for engaging communities in decision-making and addressing systemic inequitiesOffers practical strategies for communicating numeric complexity and visualizing technical information effectivelyHighlights resilience strategies for crises, including wildfires, floods, and severe weather eventsReviews funding mechanisms and interdisciplinary approaches relevant to current U.S. and global initiativesThe Handbook of Infrastructure Communication is ideal for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars in engineering, communication, and urban planning, as well as professionals in infrastructure policy and management. It is particularly well-suited for courses in systems engineering, organizational communication, environmental communication, and urban design, and serves as an essential reference for engineers, planners, policymakers, and crisis communicators.
