Promoting Public Deliberation in Low Trust Environments: Australian Use Cases
Promoting Public Deliberation in Low Trust Environments: Australian Use Cases Liam Lander1 and Nichola Cooper2 1 Charles Sturt University, Melbourne, Australia 2Centre for the Future, Melbourne, Australia [email protected] [email protected] Abstract. A vacuum of public trust in Australia has met with the maturation of technologically competent constituents. Changing sociopolitical attitudes and perceived government corruption and inefficiency have effected demands for accountability and transparency. Two responses are visible: the digitisation of government services and original models of digital democracy. This paper dis- cusses the role distributed ledger technology plays in decentralised governance in Australia. Keywords: Trust, blockchain, distributed ledger, technology, democracy, open data, government. 1 Introduction ‘A sense of the future is behind all good politics. Unless we have it, we can give nothing - either wise, or decent to the world.’ [4] There are notable trends becoming visible to even the casual Australian observer: the widening of class structures, deepening mistrust in authority, the increasing penetra- tion of more complex technology and living services that provide design solutions for operational or governance-related problems. The concurrent development of secure transmission architecture on accessible platforms creates a solutions environment that begins to address the primary obstacle to public engagement with authority and arte- facts thus far: trust. Increased voter cynicism, symptomatic of the politics of trust,1 changing patterns of media consumption, the heightened exposure of political actors to public scrutiny and poor performance in economic policy, have eroded the capacity of elected repre- sentatives to govern. [20] [9] [3] In Australia, declining levels of trust are concomitant 1 According to sociologist John Thompson, the electoral success of governments and political parties has become increasingly bound to the perceived credibility and integrity of their leaders.

The goal of this workshop is to provide a multidisciplinary forum to address questions such as: How to model the interactions between people, data, and digital tools that create new spaces and forms of civic action in the digital era? How to analyse emerging properties and types of knowledge in these contexts? How to design socio-technical systems that effectively leverage data and knowledge for deliberation (or other types of participation) and collective decision making? Can we design the meta-rules of the emergent ecosystems? The Workshop brings together participants from universities and research centers in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Brazil, Israel, UK, and the USA.
