I just read a review of Getting a Grip by Frances Moore Lappe, which indicates that she makes framing a focus of her new work about democracy, community and a sustainable economy.

Morals

In terms of morals, I assume that people are crooks, suckers, or lazy cowards. Is that a frame?

No

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, DA12. It looks promising to me.

I'm not very familiar with Frances Moore Lappe's earlier work. I do recognize some of the sources from the book's end notes, though, and I see a lot of good stuff there.
