Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This study focuses on the competition over international agenda building and frame building as the main step within the public diplomacy process. It is the first analysis of a multi-actor contest over agenda and frame building in foreign media, focusing on two strategic acts of public diplomacy, (1) Israel's disengagement from Gaza, and (2) the 2006 general elections in the Palestinian Authority. We examine the success of the actors in promoting their agenda or and frames to a sample of media in the US and Britain. We find a complex media arena, which includes antagonist actors, foreign governments, and the media as additional actors, each trying to promote its own agenda and frames. Cultural and political congruence between a foreign country and an antagonist who launches a dramatic event gives that antagonist an advantage over its rival actor. However, the antagonist actor still needs to compete with the agenda and frames of foreign governments and media organizations.
