About this book

Explores how the framing of issues on the EU agenda affects policy-making. In a study that traces the highly contested developments in biotechnology policy over twenty years, the book introduces the conceptual and theoretical tenets of policy framing and shows how this analytical lens offers a unique perspective on issues in EU policy-making.

Reviews

'This book represents a major contribution to our understanding of public policy in the European Union. Daviter makes a persuasive case for the 'framing approach' to EU studies and beyond, showing the framing effects on policy choice and how framing affects the processing of interests and ideas. The case studies are theoretically insightful and topical: essential reading in an era of (frame) contestation of policy issues.'

- Claudio M. Radaelli, Professor of Political Science, University of Exeter, UK
