Sumario:The article focuses on the role of narratives and framing in policy processes, highlighting their significance in understanding policy change, coalition dynamics, and science communication. It discusses various frameworks, including the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) and the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF), and their applications in analyzing policy debates across different contexts, such as environmental policy, disaster response, and international security. The contributions emphasize how narratives shape institutional rules, influence public trust, and affect policy outcomes, while also exploring the dynamics of blame and reputation management among policy actors. Overall, the article illustrates the complex interplay between narratives, emotions, and institutional structures in shaping policy decisions and public engagement.
