Updated with more than 50 new case studies and examples, this book elucidates the complex, competitive process through which social problems emerge, paying particular attention to how resources and rhetoric affect each stage of the process, Joel Best shows how activists, experts, and their opponents engage in claimsmaking, and how the media then report on these claims, prompting public reaction and driving policy. Colorful examples and real-world case studies help connect theory to everyday life.
