Political mobilization of policy actors into advocacy coalitions is a defining feature of policy subsystems. Nonetheless, knowledge about the particularities of advocacy coalitions across different political systems remains limited. This paper offers insights for comparative analysis of advocacy coalitions by exploring the issue of shale development in the United States, Argentina, and China using media content analysis. Methodologically, it advances the study of coalitions by introducing a standardized approach for measuring coalition attributes across countries. Empirically, it explores how coalitions vary in their composition across countries with different political opportunity structures.
