Papeleras uruguayas y ONGs. Un análisis de un conflicto ambiental visto desde la Advocacy Coalition Framework

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.
