“…Participação eletrônica, ou simplesmente e-participação, por vezes, é tratada como um subcampo da democracia eletrônica (Macintosh, 2004). Susha and Grönlund (2012) descrevem, no entanto, duas fontes de discrepância entre esses dois conceitos.…”

“…Embora a pesquisa sobre o tema apareça como um domínio bastante instrumental, em grande parte orientada para a utilização de ferramentas TIC, o seu alcance é muito mais amplo e engloba a participação dos cidadãos em praticamente qualquer serviço público, e não necessariamente na política ou na governança relacionada ao campo (Susha & Grönlund, 2012). A e-participação está relacionada a oportunidades para consulta e diálogo entre o governo e cidadãos utilizando uma série de ferramentas de TIC, incluindo e-votação -o uso de TIC para apoiar o processo democrático do voto (Macintosh, 2004). E-participação, entretanto, é muito mais do que votar (Rose, Grönlund & Andersen, 2007); inclui a extensão e a transformação da participação em processos democráticos e consultivos mediados pelas TIC (Saebø, Rose & Flak, 2008).…”

Internet and participation: the case of digital participatory budgeting in Belo Horizonte Internet y participación: el caso del presupuesto participativo digital de Belo Horizonte RESUMOEste artigo investiga as representações sociais que emergem da participação pública mediada pelo uso de Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC). A prefeitura de Belo Horizonte, em 2006, usou pela primeira vez a TIC no Orçamento Participativo Digital (OP Digital). Foi uma escolha da população das obras prioritárias para o biênio seguinte. O OP Digital foi repetido em 2008 e 2011, mas com participação inferior à obtida na primeira edição. Realizamos este trabalho para compreender o uso da internet pelo cidadão na tomada de decisão pública e para explicar a diminuição da sua participação. Os procedimentos metodológicos estão ancorados na teoria das representações sociais e na análise crítica do discurso de 101 textos -da imprensa e de órgãos públicos ou representantes do governo. Os resultados nos indicam que não está sendo explorado o potencial de interação e construção coletiva da internet, ancorando a nova prática em uma votação, dessa forma, trivializando-a. Essa pode ser uma das razões para o abandono da participação.PALAVRAS-CHAVE | Orçamento Participativo Digital, Tecnologia de Informação e Comunicação, Teoria das Representações Sociais, análise crítica do discurso, e-participação.

“…Drawing on levels as presented by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Al-Dalou and Abu-Shanab emphasise that three basic levels (information provision, citizen-consultation and citizen active participation) would leave the final decision under the responsibility of the government [4,5]. However, they also mention "codetermination" as proposed by Medimorec et al [6] as a new level.…”

“…2 The process, which is necessary to validate or recognize authenticity is called authentication, while authenticity is understood as the genuine nature of a declaration of intent in the sense that the purported author of that declaration is in fact its actual author. 3 Unique identification in Austria is possible through the state-implemented citizencard or mobile-phone-signature: Independent of technology, the so-called "link to a person" assures unique identification of a natural person 4 by a derivation of the number assigned to a person within the central register of residents. Authentication of the declaration of intent is made possible through an electronic signature.…”

Abstract. E-Participation projects have to consider a low participation threshold while maintaining security and data quality standards. While users often perceive complex regulations and logins as hurdles for participation, providers of solutions want to avoid misuse and in some cases have identified the participants uniquely. Not all levels of e-participation require the same quality of identification and authentication to produce reliable outcomes. Based on the first results of an Austrian e-participation project, the paper presents a model that tries to match these complex relations and examines which identification methods are seen as appropriate on which levels of e-participation based on the dimensions of quality of identification data and low participation threshold.

“…Many countries all over the world attempt to extend citizens' participation in public policies formulation and politics in general through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) at three levels: for supporting i) the provision of relevant information to the citizens, ii) the consultation with them and also iii) their active participation [1], [2], [3], [4]. It is widely recognized that the above two higher levels of e-participation, aiming at the consultation with the citizens and their active participation, have as basic precondition the first level of sufficient relevant information provision to them.…”

Abstract. Most public policy problems are 'wicked', being characterised by high complexity, many heterogeneous views and conflicts among various stakeholders. Therefore citizens interested to participate in such debates in order to be sufficiently informed should study large amounts of relevant material, such as reports, laws, committees' minutes, etc., which are in legalistic or in other specialist languages, or very often their substance is hidden in political rhetoric, putting barriers to a meaningful participation. In this paper we present the results of the research we have conducted for addressing this problem through the use of 'Computer Supported Argument Visualization' (CSAV) methods for supporting and enhancing eparticipation in the legislation formation process. This approach has been implemented in a pilot e-participation project and then evaluated using both quantitative and qualitative methods based on the 'Technology Acceptance Model' (TAM), with positive results. Based on the conclusions of this evaluation an enrichment of the IBIS framework has been developed for improving the visualization of legal documents.
