Insider claimsmakers are those who are involved in the policy-making process, such as lobbyists, interest group leaders, and political elites. They often have direct access to policymakers and play a significant role in shaping policy decisions. Secondary claimsmakers refer to individuals or groups who take up an issue after it has already been raised by other claimsmakers, while outsider claimsmakers have little to no access to policymakers and rely on public protest and pressure to achieve their goals. Social movements are large, organized efforts to bring about social or political change and may include both insider and outsider claimsmakers.
