“…Information was entered into a database that includes claims ("the regulator lacks enforcement powers"), the actor making the claim ("Joe Bloggs"), date, and media source (thereby broadly reflecting other media analysis exercises; e.g., Chong and Druckman 2007). This strategy allows for a comparison of individual and organizational arguments and a comparison across news sources.…”

As we write, the world is still in the grips of a financial crisis. Germany was one of the first countries to bail out a bank in July 2007. Then, in September 2007, the United Kingdom (UK) witnessed a run on a building society, Northern Rock, and the subsequent widespread nationalization of its banking sector. In the United States, the crisis led to a number of collapses among financial institutions, most famously Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers, and the bail out of the insurance group, AIG, all in 2008.

“…To answer this question, we extend existing arguments that a political leader's attempt to sway opinion through now widely acknowledged mechanisms of ''framing'' (e.g., Chong and Druckman 2007a) and ''priming'' (e.g., Althaus and Kim 2006) is often conditional. 3 We believe this is especially relevant regarding a leader's transnational efforts to swing foreign opinion through public diplomacy, a situation in which cultural differences and limited time frames might pose extra challenges to effective political communication.…”

Global public opinion has emerged as a prominent issue in international relations. But have U.S. public diplomacy efforts during the post-9/11 period successfully improved foreign publics' appraisals of U.S. foreign policy? We examine this question by estimating the effects of U.S. high-level visits to foreign countries on public opinion in those countries. We base our theoretical arguments on the political communication literature, but extend them to consider transnational dynamics in international relations. Specifically, we argue that U.S. leaders' credibility in the eyes of foreign publics is critical in shaping attitudes toward U.S. foreign policy. Empirically, we show that the effects of such visits were initially significantly large and positive, but weakened once the war in Iraq began and international media started reporting negative aspects of the ''war on terror.'' Most interestingly, we find some evidence that high-level visits eventually exhibited a backlash effect.

While these referendums were seemingly distinct from one another, identical campaign posters and arguments were circulated across Europe. Diffusion is a process wherein new ideas and models of behavior spread geographically from a core site to other sites (Bunce et al., 2006). While referendum campaigns have been studied thoroughly, such cross-case influences remain overlooked (e.g. Glencross et al., 2011;Qvortrup, 2006). I show that campaign arguments were not always homegrown in the 2005 EU referendums. Campaigners could learn from the experience of previous campaigns. This was important because strategic arguments blamed the treaty for controversial issues such as degradation of welfare state or loss of national identity. Diffusion across cases was thus crucial in bringing new arguments into the debate. All campaigns were not created equal, and the cases were not independent.The extant literature has not applied diffusion theories to the study of referendum campaigns.Instead of using diffusion processes as an independent variable and trying to trace their effect on the referendum results quantitatively (e.g. Collingwood et al., 2012), I treat diffusion as the dependent variable and detail social mechanisms that connect referendum campaigns through interview data.
