The global explosion of online activity is steadily transforming the relationship between government and the public. The first wave of change, "e-government," enlisted the Internet to improve management and the delivery of services. More recently, "e-democracy" has aimed to enhance democracy itself using digital information and communication technology. One notable example of e-democratic practice is the government-sponsored (or government-authorized) online forum for public input on policymaking. This book investigates these "online consultations" and their effect on democratic practice in the United States and Europe, examining the potential of Internet-enabled policy forums to enrich democratic citizenship. The book first situates the online consultation phenomenon in a conceptual framework that takes into account the contemporary media environment and the flow of political communication; then offers a multifaceted look at the experience of online consultation participants in the United States, the United Kingdom, and France; and finally explores the legal architecture of U.S. and E.U. online consultation. As the contributors make clear, online consultations are not simply dialogues between citizens and government but constitute networked communications involving citizens, government, technicians, civil society organizations, and the media. The topics examined are especially relevant today, in light of the Obama administration's innovations in online citizen involvement. 000464130 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 000464130 650_0 $$aCommunication in politics$$xTechnological innovations. 000464130 650_0 $$aInternet in public administration. 000464130 650_0 $$aInternet$$xPolitical aspects. 000464130 650_0 $$aCommunication in public administration$$xTechnological innovations. 000464130 650_0 $$aPolitical participation$$xTechnological innovations. 000464130 650_0 $$aPolitical planning$$xCitizen participation. 000464130 653__ $$aSOCIAL SCIENCES/Political Science/General 000464130 655_0 $$aElectronic books 000464130 7001_ $$aColeman, Stephen,$$d1957-$$eeditor. 000464130 7001_ $$aShane, Peter M.,$$eeditor. 000464130 852__ $$bebk 000464130 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/9006.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 000464130 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 000464130 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:464130$$pGLOBAL_SET 000464130 980__ $$aBIB 000464130 980__ $$aEBOOK 000464130 982__ $$aEbook 000464130 983__ $$aOnline
