1. Crises as political battlegrounds Dramatic episodes in the life of a polity such as financial crises and major recessions can cast long shadows on the polities in which they occur (Birkland 1997, 2006; Baumgartner and Jones 1993, 2002; Lomborg 2004; Posner 2004).1 The sense of threat and uncertainty they induce can profoundly impact people’s understanding of the world around them. The occurrence of a large-scale emergency or the widespread use of the emotive labels such as ‘crisis’, ‘scandal’ or ‘fiasco’ to denote a particular state of affairs or trend in the public domain implies a ‘dislocation’ of hitherto dominant social, political or administrative discourses (Wagner-Pacifici 1986, 1994; Howarth et al. 2000). When a crisis de-legitimises the power and authority relationships that these discourses underpin, structural change is desired and expected by many (’t Hart 1993).
