Abstract
- Global agenda setting (also described as issue emergence) has largely been overlooked by researchers in international politics, contrary to the vast amount of research into domestic agenda setting by scholars studying U.S. politics. One of the reasons global agenda setting has been neglected stems from a lack of a standard approach to agenda setting that can be used in the international arena. This paper identifies a way to study international agenda setting through the use of framing. Using the framing perspective allows us to examine change and continuity in frames over time as opposed to the rather idiosyncratic way global agenda setting research has been examined in the past. The paper proposes understanding issue emergence by looking at the moral, analytical, and temporal aspects of a frame and their dominance in international discourse. In addition, the paper describes the most likely influences on frame dominance as sources for hypotheses to guide future research on international issue emergence. ..PAT.-Unpublished Manuscript [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
