Biography

Ryan Dennehy is a Ph.D. student in Political Science at the University of South Carolina. He studies varied topics in American Politics and Public Administration/Public Policy. His primary interests lie in class-based rhetoric and political motivations behind state-driven poverty alleviation measures. He holds a B.A. in Political Science and History from Lebanon Valley College. His work principally examines political communication and rhetorical frames. He argues that the ways in which we talk about politics are not abstractions of institutions, policymaking, or other underlying processes. Rather, rhetoric itself makes political reality. Additionally, he examines policy and rhetorical diffusion among American states.
