James Rushing Daniel is an Assistant Professor of English and Director of Basic Writing and Assessment at Seton Hall University's Department of English. His research focuses on the intersection of rhetorical theory, composition studies, and critical university studies, particularly examining how capitalist logics permeate educational institutions and public discourse.
His current book project critiques how entrepreneurship has reshaped higher education to serve global capitalism, while his 2022 publication Toward an Anti-Capitalist Composition reimagines writing pedagogy as a site of political resistance. Daniel's work appears in journals like Quarterly Journal of Speech and Rhetoric Society Quarterly, addressing topics ranging from billionaire rhetoric to labor rights in academia.
His research emphasizes Marxist critiques of educational systems, the corporatization of universities, and the pedagogical potential of addressing economic inequality in writing classrooms. Recent articles analyze figures like Peter Thiel, the new space race's capitalist narratives, and faculty churn's impact on academic labor.
