| Summary: | This open access book explores the idea that corporate rhetoric can be a force for good. In developing a new framework for analysis and discussion of green marketing, the authors argue that corporate environmental rhetoric can be harnessed to contribute to climate transition and a more sustainable market economy. The work explores the transformative power inherent in green promises and sets a vision of what green marketers should strive for. Engaging with selected research on organizational theory, the authors negotiate the conflicting paradigms of rhetorical theory and their relation to the study of corporate legitimation practices. The resulting theoretical framework provides an analytical scheme that can be useful in various disciplines - such as sociology, economics, law, marketing theory, and communication. It also illustrates how we can find new answers to contemporary challenges by re-imagining rhetoric. This is an open access book. Erik Bengtson isa scholar of rhetoric at Uppsala and Södertörn Universities, Sweden. He has published on the epistemology of rhetoric, rhetorical argumentation theory, and semiotics. Later, his research focus has shifted towards exploring the relations between capitalism and climate transition rhetoric. Oskar Mossberg is a private law scholar at Uppsala University. He works at the intersection between law and rhetoric and is engaged in developing legal doctrine and methodology by drawing on other fields within the humanities and social sciences, including philosophy, hermeneutics, and rhetoric. |
