    c Copyright 2012 Shauna Foley Fisher The Dance of Policy Argumentation: Recasting the Same-Sex Marriage Debate Shauna Foley Fisher A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Michael McCann, Chair George Lovell Peter May Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Political Science University of Washington Abstract The Dance of Policy Argumentation: Recasting the Same-Sex Marriage Debate Shauna Foley Fisher Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Michael McCann Department of Political Science This project is motivated by a desire to examine the patterns that evolve as activists and their opponents struggle to control how the public and policymakers understand a particu- lar issue at the center of contention. Competing activist groups fight in a context shaped by two important dynamics. As advocacy groups pursue change, or attempt to block change, they must confront the mobilizing activities of their opponents. The first question addressed by this project comes out of this dynamic. Do activists engage, anticipate, or ignore their opponents’ messages? The second dynamic is the characteristics of particular institutional venues. Activist groups encounter different sets of institutional processes while fighting for their side through litigation than through ballot measure campaigns, for example. This raises a second question. Do activists change their messages for different institutional are- nas and venues? Finally, the media are central to contentious politics, but are not directly responsible for policymaking. They are, however, partially responsible for making the pub- lic and policymakers aware of the messages and activities of activists on either side. Thus the third and final question motivating this project is: what is the role of the media in contentious politics? I address these questions through an analysis of press release, newspaper, and cam- paign materials from same-sex marriage activists and their opponents in California.
