Unformatted Document Text:  38 C. Issue framing allows intellectuals to create legitimacy of the social campaigns, as a political opportunity and mobilization resource Although issue-framing, political opportunity and mobilization resources approaches complement each other, they fail to point out the importance of epistemic community. Especially in social movements, due to the lacking of institutional power, legitimacy is the most crucial mean for the activists to accumulate energy.
