Book excerpt: Mainstream public relations overvalues noise, sound and voice in public communication. But how can we explain that while practitioners use silence on a daily basis, academics have widely remained quiet on the subject? Why is silence habitually famed as inherently bad and unethical? Silence is neither separate from nor the opposite of communication. The inclusion of silence on a par with speech and non-verbal means is a vital element of any communication strategy; it opens it up for a new, complex and more reflective understanding of strategic silence as indirect communication. Drawing on a number of disciplines that see in silence what public relations academics have not yet, this book reveals forms of silence to inform public relations solutions in practice and theory. How do we manage silence? How can strategic silence increase the capacity of public relations as a change agent? Using a format of multiple short chapters and practice examples, this is the first book that discusses the concept of strategic silence, and its consequences for PR theory and practice. Applying silence to communication cases and issues in global societies, it will be of interest to scholars and researchers in public relations, strategic communications and communication studies.

Download or read book The Strategic Silence written by Isabella Bakker. This book was released on 1994. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applying a gender-aware analysis to macroeconomics, this book on restructuring and adjustment presents a global picture, highlighting the similarities and contradictions in gender relations arising out of the restructuring process. The contributors consider macroeconomic methods and policies in order to propose elements of a more gender-aware economics. Whilst some fall within the neo-classical framework, others suggest an epistemological break with the homogenizing thrust of Western economism towards multiple objective worlds, each with their own validity. Based on case studies from North and South, the book reflects on the state, economy and household within the broader context of concrete methodological observations.

Book Synopsis Strategies of Silence by : Moy McCrory

Download or read book Strategies of Silence written by Moy McCrory. This book was released on 2021-02-25. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book takes silence as its central concept and questions the range of meanings and values which inform the idea as it impinges on the creative process and its content and contexts. The thematic core of silence allows a consideration of silencing and silence as opposite ends of a spectrum: one shutting down, the other enabling and opening up. As a multidisciplinary collection of essays derived from the teaching and implementation of Creative Writing at university level, the contributors consider silence as strategic, both through the need for silence and as something which compels resistance. They explore how writing has employed images and tropes of silence in the past, and used silence and gaps technically. In considering marginalised and forgotten voices, this book shows how writers bring their diverse range of backgrounds and experience to work with and against silence in Creative Writing Studies. The first theoretical work on silence in Creative Writing, this field-shifting book is an essential read for both practitioners and students of Creative Writing at the higher education level.

Book Synopsis The Power of Silence by : Adam Jaworski

Download or read book The Power of Silence written by Adam Jaworski. This book was released on 1993. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a theoretical account of a variety of different communicative aspects of silence and explores new ways of studying socially-motivated language. A research overview shows the influence of related work in the fields of media studies, politics, gender studies, aesthetics and literature. The author argues that in theoretically pragmatic terms, silence can be accounted for by the same principles as those of speech. A later, more applied section of the book explores the power of silencing in politics. A concluding chapter shows the importance of silence beyond linguistics and politics in terms of artistic expression. The approach is intentionally eclectic in order to explore the concept of silence as a rich and
