“…The discussion of ideas in May and Jochim (2013), which includes the importance of shared commitments and understandings, is a refreshing deviation from the implementation research mainstream. Within this, concepts like frames (Rein & Schon, 1996;Schon & Rein, 1994), narratives (Roe, 1989;Roe, 1994) problem structures (Hoppe, 2011), problem representations (Chisholm, 1995) and ways of knowing (Schneider & Ingram, 2007) that are used to understand intractable policy controversies (Schon & Rein, 1994) have been largely absent from the analyses.
