• Resumen

  • Facets of game theory offer an additional way to view rhetoric that stems from conflict situations. It may offer ways to judge unique parts of the rhetorical act. In this essay an explanation of game theory's rhetorical potential is given, its relationship to conflict‐centered rhetoric discussed, and an example of its application is reflected in an analysis of the persistent controversy over the role of key oral statements made immediately prior to Korean War.
