Abstract
ABSTRACT We inhabit a world fundamentally transformed in the decades since Roe v. Wade. This includes seismic shifts wrought by the rise of homeland security culture, wherein intense digital surveillance and privacy violations are figured as both pedestrian and inevitable. It is no coincidence that the evisceration of constitutionally-protected abortion care under the right to “privacy” specifically unfolds in this moment. There is no going back. Moving forward entails understanding the Dobbs decision in the broader context of homeland security culture and a centering of reproductive justice as critical to US democracy.
期刊介绍:
The Quarterly Journal of Speech (QJS) publishes articles and book reviews of interest to those who take a rhetorical perspective on the texts, discourses, and cultural practices by which public beliefs and identities are constituted, empowered, and enacted. Rhetorical scholarship now cuts across many different intellectual, disciplinary, and political vectors, and QJS seeks to honor and address the interanimating effects of such differences. No single project, whether modern or postmodern in its orientation, or local, national, or global in its scope, can suffice as the sole locus of rhetorical practice, knowledge and understanding.
