Recently, the concept of judgment has emerged as a highly contestatory site for philosophical, rhetorical, and cultural reflection and inquiry. "Judgment Calls" offers a variety of essays that explore the question of judgment in a postmodern age, seeking out the question of how, once solid ground is pulled out from underneath the position of the judge, one continues to "tread" judgment, to meet obligations while remaining afloat.The essays in this edited volume investigate judgment as a rhetorical problem to be discussed philosophically and examines the standards by which judgments are made and can be made in contemporary culture. The essays clarify the links between rhetoric and judgment as they are played out on public and meta-critical levels.
