{"product_id":"9780195349849","title":"A Place to Stand: Politics and Persuasion in a Working-Class Bar","description":"\u003cp\u003eLinguists have become increasingly interested in examining how class culture is socially constructed and maintained through spoken language. Julie Lindquist's examination of the linguistic ethnography of a working-class bar in Chicago is an important and original contribution to the field. She examines how regular patrons argue about political issues in order to create a group identity centered around political ideology. She also shows how their political arguments are actually a rhetorical genre, one which creates a delicate balance between group solidarity and individual identity, as well as a tenuous and ambivalent sense of class identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124378190064,"sku":"9780195349849","price":43.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780195349849","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
