Nonvirtue is not apathy : warrants for discourse and citizen dissent - 2000
The author argues that conditions of subordination limit opportuunities for citizen paticipation and discourse and alter the forms and meanings of each. In ther view, open participation in the forms recognized as conventional, virtuous, and authentic is often neither possible nor wise The author offers James Scott`s work as a potential rejoinder to those who would require virtue of the nonapathetic and as an anwuer to Fox and Miller`s question, "Why bother attending a discourse where claims are as likey to be counterfeit as authentic?"Using Scott`s analysis of hidden transcripts as a point of theoretical dparture, the author explores the impact of Fox and Miller`s warrants for discourse on percetions of participation and dissent. She suggests that to be more fully inclusive, theoristis might reconceptualize the ends of deliverative discourse and reconsider the place of Habermasian warants in achieving them
