In recent accounts of rhetoric’s storied productivity, commentators have implied, along systematically Kantian lines, albeit with the occasional protestation, that agency must be coextensive with subjectivity. But is that all there is (to 2,500 years’ worth of hypothesizing about the ways in which communication might promote social change)? Les Belikian’s answer, drawing not only on traditional and contemporary rhetorical studies but also on Deleuzean thinking, actor-network theory, and object-oriented ontology, takes the form of a quadruply contrarian thesis: Rhetorical agency inheres, irreducibly so, in subjectivity, in conventionality, in transcendence, and in materiality, all of which are themselves always under production.TABLE OF CONTENTS //Chapter 1: Productivity as a Context for Theorizing Rhetorical Transaction • A Miscellaneously Self-Effacing Rhetorical Agency? • Rhetoricity Bound, Unbounded, and Both • Variegation (Not Conglomeration) — Chapter 2: A Four-Folded Rhetorical Agency • Tetradic Due Diligence • Disaggregating a Constitution • A Willfully Productive Rhetorical Agency • Assemblage–Theoretical Resources • Triangulation • An Investigative Itinerary — Chapter 3: Subjectivity in the Social-Structural Landscape • Co-Constructing Constraint • Can the Speaker Speak? • An Ineffectual Agency • Subtracting from Rhetorical Practice • What Else Is Wrong with This Paradigm? • A Chimerical Agency for a Colossal Agent — Chapter 4: Conventionality in the Rhetorical-Humanistic Landscape • De-Leviathanizing the Normative • From Normativity to Shared Values • A Tribe of Equals • Keeping Shared Values between the Ceiling and the Seat • Staying the Same by Doing Something Differently • Maximizing Assent by Minimizing Recalcitrance • Still Missing So Far — Chapter 5: Transcendence in the Existential-Transversal Landscape • Existence, Transcendence, and Transversality • Philosophizing for the Living by Getting Rid of Their Materiality • The Two Styles of Transcendence • The Fideistic Appeal • Correcting Forgetfulness through a Material Phenomenology • Rhetorical Agency and the Existential Self • On Pivoting, Transcendence, and Emergence • The Rhetorical Agent and the Original Body • A Re-Corporealized Transversality — Chapter 6: Materiality in the Material-Semiotic Landscape • A Parable of Materiality-and-Relationality • Assemblaging, Stratification, and Circulating Reference • Entering at Biblical Precept • Crossing over to Race • From Race to Gender • Rescaling the Envoy • And A’n’t We a Meshwork? — Chapter 7: Agency in the Rhetorical-Theoretical World • No More Homogenization Now! • On Keeping Difference Different • A Fluctuating Rhetorical Agent

The central focus of this analysis is whether the economic growth of China can be attributed to an emulation of the development models of Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Based on the developmental state theory, an East Asian developmental state model is set up as a benchmark. The thesis uses an empirical analysis of the auto industry to highlight the performance outcome of China’s development strategy. The author confirms that China has evolved into a developmental state similar in its core characteristics to the three leading East Asian states. The model of development in China, however, is an innovative combination of factors from the developmental states, the legacies of the past command economy as well as of the adopted market economy mechanism including international capital flows.

Il volume raccoglie gli studi presentati in occasione della XII Giornata di studi bizantini dedicata al Fortleben di Bisanzio nell’arte, nella letteratura e nelle istituzioni, in un intreccio di prospettive interdisciplinari che, attraverso la mise au point di problemi specifici, testimonia la documentata vitalità della tradizione bizantina nella cultura moderna, valorizzando anche il ruolo che l’Università degli studi di Milano ha avuto nella bizantinistica in tale ambito di ricerche. A questo hanno contribuito pure i molteplici interessi di Gianfranco Fiaccadori, al quale il volume è dedicato: per oltre un decennio ha profuso nell’Ateneo milanese entusiasmo e competenze, stimolando gli studi dei giovani e avviando ricerche tuttora in atto. Il ricordo vuole essere il segno di gratitudine per un evento voluto e organizzato con il consueto rigore, del quale purtroppo Gianfranco non ha potuto vedere concretamente i frutti.
