Political speeches don’t just mirror what transpires in the world; they have the potential to change people’s minds, move them into action, reinforce existing assumptions, and reshape cultures. They define public participation and are the ‘nexus points’ of disparate discourses, both nationally and globally. Because of their power to sustain the status quo or effect change, speeches warrant public attention and careful study. To examine them is to understand how they are crafted, what elements they possess, and how these elements come together to affect their audience.
This volume analyzes selected speeches delivered by Benigno ‘Noynoy’ Simeon C. Aquino III, President of the Republic of the Philippines from 2010 to 2016. They are speeches that have been used to shape public perception, gain support, and build identification between Aquino’s presidency and his audience.
By mobilizing the concepts of presidential image, myth, metaphors, and rhetorical citizenship, readers are guided through a process of examining the rhetorical trajectory of the Philippine presidency, how a president’s discourse has attempted to shape Philippine socio-political reality, and how the evolving milieu the president has found himself in shapes his discourse. The essays in this volume will hopefully generate a discussion not only on the place of President Benigno Aquino’s rhetoric in Philippine presidential history, but also of how rhetorical practices in an evolving democratic society in Asia can extend and expand theorizations of presidential rhetoric and political communication at large.

Описание: A first-hand account of corruption and cover-up at Goldman Sachs from the Federal Reserve examiner who refused to be silenced. In 2011, Carmen Segarra took a job as a regulator at Goldman Sachs on behalf of the NY Fed. It was an opportunity, she believed, to monitor the big bank's behavior in order to avoid another financial crisis. Shocked to discover that Goldman did not have a conflict of interest policy, she immediately issued a report. But her superiors pressured her to modify the report, covering up her discovery. It was then that she realized the full extent of the collusion between Goldman and the Fed and began to record meetings and conversations with her superiors. When she refused to change her report, Segarra was dismissed from her job. Shortly thereafter she released her audio recordings, exposing the Fed's inefficiency in holding the bank accountable. In this hard-hitting expos , Segarra chronicles her experience blowing open the doors on the macro-level corruption, ineffectiveness, and illegal behavior of the big banks and the government bodies set up to regulate them. From the moment she became a whistleblower, countless employees of regulatory bodies and banks have come to Segarra to share testimonies of cover-ups they have witnessed. In Noncompliant, she reveals how common these practices are, and shows how the culture of corruption that is not only accepted but encouraged in these companies filters down to the individual employees. In the process of unraveling these connections, she explains to readers how, ultimately, this systemic corruption affects us all.

Описание: Esta obra reune una serie de articulos presentados en el coloquio internacional El segundo sexo, que tuvo lugar en las universidades de Lleida y Barcelona en noviembre de 2009 para celebrar el sesenta aniversario de esta obra de Simone de Beauvoir. El libro pretende abordar la personalidad de esta autora desde diversos puntos de vista, primero desde la filosofia iniciando un recorrido por sus obras mas importantes y por la tematica que subyace en ellas, luego a traves de un analisis detallado del Segundo Sexo y de su repercusion tanto en Espana como en Francia y en otras latitudes. Tambien se aborda la particular relacion de Simone de Beauvoir con la literatura a traves de un recorrido por sus principales creaciones para desembocar finalmente en el nexo entre la escritura y la vida, analizando el trabajo en colaboracion, la amistad y sus, no siempre faciles, relaciones con los hombres que marcaron un hito en su vida. Asi se conforma un volumen diverso pero coherente, que permite una rica aproximacion a la obra y a la personalidad de una mujer que, sin duda alguna, contribuyo decisivamente a transformar las vidas de otras muchas mujeres del mundo entero.
