Why Hermagoras Still Matters: The Fourth Stasis and Interdisciplinarity
1. Alan Gross, in \”Why Hermagoras Still Matters: The Fourth Stasis and Interdisciplinarity,\” attempted to revive Hermagoras’s stasis of “jurisdiction.” If an argument about jurisdiction is about who has the responsibility or right to act, to what extent does jurisdiction play a role in a social media campaign today? How is jurisdiction in a social media campaign similar to or different from jurisdiction in other types of communication?

2. Jeanne Fahnestock and Marie Secor, in \”Teaching Argument: A Theory of Types,\” developed a description of the stasis theory (a set of argument types), which includes a discussion of proposals. Proposals attempt to move an audience to act in some way, while some of the other types of argument can support proposals. What specific action would you like your audience to take? Up to the point of the media toolkit, what have your campaign materials done to persuade your audience to act? To what extent do you think your arguments, whether visual or textual, implicit or explicit, will be successful? Why?
