FRAMING THE DEBATE

Firms need to master the art of political spin.

Presenting a venture as «fair»,equitable», or «growth enhancing»

Dominant firms appeal to '' fairness'' by arguing that smaller entrants cannot survive without the government's helping hand

LG Telecom — the third entrant, behind the much larger SK Telekom and Korea Telecom — made repeated calls for '' asymmetric'' government regulation of the market leaders in order to '' level the playing field''

The Korea Times reported, '' The defining question is whether the government will back new entrants in the name of encouraging fair competition, or limit the pool to experienced players''

May 2001 the South Korean government announced that it would '' guarantee a market share of at least 20% for third major telecom operator through asymmetric regulation on Korea Telecom and SK Telecom''

War room

Method;Brainstorming sessionsInfluence map “Influence maps” are used to depict each politically relevant actor as a bubble arrayed in space according to the player’s position on a given issue, with the size of the bubble proportional to the player’s power. What happens if we target actor X? What if we break the link between X and Y? What if we try to reduce Z’s power?

Models are used by the intelligence community and by specialist consulting groups such as Mesquita & Roundell, Sentia Group, the Probity Group, and Commetrix.

Analysts; Identified which actors were most commonly cited in the press and referenced in their speeches and writings.
