 Call for Papers
The African Journal of Rhetoric (AJR) seeks papers on different aspects of African Presidential Rhetoric. Any observer of African Politics would observe the use and abuse of rhetoric in the African public domain without deep analysis of this phenomenon. There is need for us to discuss African residential rhetoric in all its forms, particularly under civilian regimes. What are the roles that speechwriters play in ideological construction of a state? What is the general character of executive politics in Africa?
How is the notion of rhetoric of crisis linked to executive politics in Africa? Who are the model orators among African leaders and what can the concept of rhetorical leadership offer African States? How does rhetoric facilitate and enhance the relationship between African leaders and their Parliaments and publics? These and other pertinent questions crave answers.
