Walking the Cliff's Edge: The New Nation's Rhetoric of Resistance in Apartheid South Africa Excerpt
2009
Overview
This article examines the rhetoric of resistance used by South African antiapartheid journalists to expose the links between the apartheid government and death squads. By utilizing allusions, repetition, and a concept I refer to as \"subversive enthymemes,\" these journalists managed to reveal publicly information about death squad activity in a context of overwhelming constraints almost a full decade before these facts were confirmed by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
