    Selected readings (The Advocacy Coalition Framework by Paul Cairney and The Multiple Streams
    Framework by Nikolaos Zahariadis) focus on different aspect of policymaking process. ACF text place its
    attention on variety of actors (deferring from model of ‘iron triangle’ model) involved on various levels of
    policy process, based on different ‘beliefs’. It defines ‘sub-systems’ within a wider political system as place
    where political change is happening in a long scope of time, introducing politicization of issues as a
    determining factor in power dynamics between advocacy coalitions. This coalitions are formed based on
    long-term beliefs (there are three main types of beliefs: deep core beliefs, policy core beliefs, and
    secondary aspects), which are tide to policy actions. These believes are hierarchically ordered based on
    their scope, how they influence learning, and how likely they are to change in relation to new experiences
    and events. The framework is enabling descriptions of policy process in aspects of its attention over on
    long-term policy cycles and both continuity and change, and stability and instability of political sub-
    systems.

    The second text pays attention to a model developed to explain the, in first place, agenda setting and
    policy formulation stages of policymaking, but it has potential to be applicable to the other steps of ‘policy
    cycle’. In its core the model assumes political manipulation as a way of maintaining the ‘ambiguity’
    presumed by the ‘garbage can model of choice’. Manipulation is used by the policy entrepreneurs, who
    have resources and access to policy makers, to make the most of the policy window. Considering the unity
    of other three (independent) ‘streams’ (problems, policies and politics) at critical moment in time, the
    entrepreneurs (individuals or corporate actors) apply manipulative strategies to gain the support of
    policymakers. The model as well considers the processes of attention, search and selection that constitute
    ultimate choice. Although criticized in several aspects, model offers analytical tool of policy choice and
    processes by organizations and political systems.
