[Xmca-l] Re: frame theory

[Andy Blunden]

Thanks to all.

I will try to contact Anika and Kris for a PDF of their work 
on this.

Greg and Lloyd, I am looking specifically for someone who 
has taken the idea of "framing" into a CHAT frame, I am not 
particularly interested in the presumably vast range of 
possible genealogies and variants of the idea of framing. I 
am particularly interested in "framing" as a rhetorical and 
movement-mobilising device, that is to say, as an action 
which is part of a project, like when our former Prime 
Minister John Howard said "We will decide who comes into 
this country" reframing the arrival of refugees on on 
Australian shores as a kind of invasion, and the 
Opposition's failed attempt to reframe the stopping of boats 
as a diplomatic insult to Indonesia. etc. and how social 
movements frame all social problems around the concept which 
provides them with their identity. I can see how teachers 
would use framing to introduce children to concepts which 
they might otherwise find irrelevant to their lives. I'd 
like to know who has expressed this idea in Activity 
Theoretical terms, in particular.

Thanks all again for your assistance.

Andy
