manifester, manifestproces, retorisk handlekraft, potentiale for handlekraft, affektive eksperimenterAbstract
Denne artikel nuancerer dominerende forståelser af manifestet og af retorisk handlekraft ved at argumentere for, at begge dele kan forstås og undersøges som en proces. Artiklen tager afsæt i traditionel og nyere feministisk manifestteori samt i forståelsen af retorisk handlekraft som både potentiale og realisering, og som noget vi tilskriver hinanden. Ideerne om manifestet og retorisk handlekraft som processuelle ligger allerede implicit i begge fagfelter, men artiklen samler, ekspliciterer og eksemplificerer disse ideer gennem et forsknings- og undervisningseksperiment kaldet Manifestet som Proces. Artiklens empiri består af seksten logbøger fra et hold kandidatstuderende i retorik, som deltog i eksperimentet. Gennem en læsning af logbøgerne viser artiklen, hvordan retorisk handlekraft i manifestprocesserne opstår som et samspil mellem person(er) og proces(er), og den finder og beskriver tre typer af retorisk handlekraft: processuel, personlig og social. Manifestet rummer dermed et potentiale for både personlig og social transformation for dem, som deltager i manifestprocessen.
