Synopsis: In this new textbook, Joel Best gives readers a complete set of tools for analysing any social problem. Best helps readers think carefully about how activists, experts and their opponents frame social problems; the logic that they use; the rhetoric of claimsmaking; and the ways that access to resources determines who gets their claims heard. In order to help students connect theory to everyday life, Best peppers the book with colourful examples and case studies from the real world.
