On Scarcity
For the first time in a long time, my blogroll extends. The limitations imposed by my "twenty" theme were problematic: the theory I've been working through for my CCCC presentation suggests that scarcity often serves as a technology of domination. This is, of course, an obvious economic insight, but one that I'd never thought to apply to writing.

About
My name's Mike. I'm an assistant professor at the United States Military Academy at West Point, but the ideas I express here are my own, and do not reflect the views of West Point, the Army, or the Department of Defense. I write here about rhetoric, composition, and technology. I like cats.
