This article explains how the advocacy
coalition framework (ACF) can be used as a
theoretical basis for understanding political
context via a stakeholder analysis. An ACF
analysis widens the attention toward subsystem-
wide dynamics with multiple actors
who are motivated by their beliefs, structure
their relationships into advocacy coalitions,
and try to influence policy through utilizing
multiple resources and venues.
The article illustrates the ACF approach to
stakeholder analysis in an international conflict,
over the construction of two pulp paper
miles in Uruguay.
