Jennifer Young

Rhetoric, Embodiment, and the Ethos of Surveillance

Student Bodies in the American High School

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Hyper-secure school buildings, surveillance cameras, and lockdown drills are taking a toll on students in American high schools, and they don't guarantee safety. This book discusses how we've ended up where we are and suggests that rhetoric and empathy can be employed in ways that render schools safer than technological security measures do.
