The existing literature on dissident movements has not addressed the question of how rhetoric can be used to mobilize potential adherents to social movements. This project hypothesizes that rhetoric takes place within particular communication `frames` and is more successful at mobilization when legal and political pressure increasingly is directed against the dissident group. This research uses a content analysis of the Black Panther Party's newsletter (published weekly between 1967 and 1980) to determine the content of this dissident group's rhetoric. These data are correlated with local, state and federal responses. These data are estimated using standard econometric techniques. The project sheds light on the circumstances under which authorities respond to attempts at political mobilization. It sheds light on how dissidents recreate their rhetorical statements in response to actions by authorities. Finally, it sheds light on the dynamic interaction between mobilization attempts and domestic political responses.

关于持不同政见者运动的现有文献没有解决如何使用修辞来动员潜在的社会运动追随者的问题。 这个项目假设，修辞发生在特定的通信`框架'，是更成功的动员时，法律的和政治压力越来越多地针对持不同政见者群体。 这项研究使用黑豹党的通讯（1967年至1980年每周出版）的内容分析，以确定这个持不同政见者团体的言论的内容。 这些数据与地方、州和联邦的反应相关。 这些数据是使用标准计量经济学技术估计的。 该项目揭示了当局在何种情况下应对政治动员的企图。 它揭示了持不同政见者如何重建他们的修辞声明，以回应当局的行动。 最后，它揭示了动员尝试和国内政治反应之间的动态互动。
