  • Digital Citizenship and Digital Communities: How Technology Matters for Individuals and Communities
    International Journal of E-Planning Research Volume 10 • Issue 3 • July-September 2021 Digital Citizenship and Digital Communities: How Technology Matters for Individuals and Communities Karen Mossberger, Arizona State University, USA Caroline J. Tolbert, University of Iowa, USA ABSTRACT Over the past decade, the vision of smart cities filled with technological innovation and digitally engaged citizens has been pursued around the globe, but not all city residents have a chance to participate in or benefit from these innovations. Connectivity is unequally distributed across cities and neighborhoods, and these disparities have costs not only for individuals, but for communities, as COVID-19 so aptly demonstrated. There is a need to examine uses and outcomes for broadband across cities and neighborhoods as digital human capital in communities. Two studies summarized here show that like other human capital, technology use conveys economic benefits for communities. Broadband adoption over time is related to prosperity and growth in the 50 largest metros. Big data on the density of domain name websites shows that this measure of technology use is likewise a significant predictor of prosperity and median income, controlling for other factors. We conclude with a research agenda on digital human capital and community outcomes. KEywoRDS Digital Divide, Economic Development, Human Capital, Skills 1. INTRoDUCTIoN Over the past decade, the vision of smart cities filled with technological innovation and digitally engaged citizens has been pursued around the globe, but not all city residents have a chance to participate in or benefit from these innovations. The coronavirus pandemic uncovered deep and persistent inequalities in technology access and use in the United States, more than a decade after the enactment of a National Broadband Plan (FCC 2010), and a quarter century after the first government report on the “digital divide” (National Telecommunications and Information Administration 1995).

  • Innovating in Digital Government in the American Statesn
    Innovating in Digital Government in the American States n Ramona S. McNeal, Kent State University Caroline J. Tolbert, Kent State University Karen Mossberger, Kent State University Lisa J. Dotterweich, Kent State University Objective. The purpose of this research is to examine why some states have embraced digital government more extensively than others. Methods. Multivariate regression analysis is used to empirically test explanations for state innovation in e- government. The primary dependent variable is the percent of state-level govern- ment websites offering online services to citizens. Results. Republican-controlled legislatures are more likely to embrace e-government, implying that efficiency concerns may drive reliance on digital government. Innovators in e-government were states with fewer households with Internet access and less use of the initiative process, indicating that citizen demand was not a factor. More extensive use of e-government is also associated with legislative professionalization and professional networks—factors that may be useful for explaining the diffusion of other administrative reforms, and technical issues lacking political salience. Conclusions. These data suggest e-government implementation is driven by legislative professionalism and, to a lesser extent, state professional networks, rather than citizen demand. These indicators fit Lowi’s (1972) conception of ‘‘constituent policy’’ as a top-down process, confined to administrative or legislative circles, compared to distributive, regulatory, and redistributive policy. We hypothesize that other administrative reforms, particularly those lacking political salience, may exhibit similar relationships with legislative professionalization and professional networks. Arguably, one of the most recent significant innovations in information technology has been the creation and ongoing development of the Internet.

  • Does E-Government Use Contribute to Civic Engagement with Government
    DOES E‐GOVERNMENT USE CONTRIBUTE TO CIVIC ENGAGEMENT WITH GOVERNMENT AND COMMUNITY? Megan Haller, Ph.D. [email protected] Meng-Hao Li [email protected] Karen Mossberger, Ph.D. [email protected] Department of Public Administration University of Illinois at Chicago ABSTRACT: Is e-government changing patterns of interaction between citizens and government? Does it support civic engagement by citizens, with government and with each other? After discussing theories of civic engagement and possible links to e-government, we examine different types of e-government use (service users and policy researchers), and the relationships between these types of use on the one hand, with various kinds of civic engagement on the other: contacting through email, offline interactions with government, online participation in public affairs, and online and offline discussion with neighbors regarding community affairs. Using data from a recent national survey from the Pew Internet and American Life Project (December 2009), we find that policy researchers are more likely to engage in all of these activities, both online and offline. Those who use e-government for services, however, are also more likely than non-e-government users to engage in some of these activities. This suggests multiple ways in which e-government may be assisting in the transformation of governance, not only through service delivery but also through more informed and engaged citizenship. Acknowledgment: We thank the Institute for Policy and Civic Engagement (IPCE) of the University of Illinois at Chicago for generously supporting this research. The analysis and conclusions drawn here, however, are the sole responsibility of the authors.

    Online Society and the Power of Knowing Digital Citizenship: The Internet, Society, and Participation By Karen Mossberger, Caroline J. Tolbert and Ramona S. McNeal MIT Press, 221 pages, $47.00 By Elaine Hicks My girlfriend picked me up to have dinner after a long day of reading about digital citizenship. “What did you learn about today?” she asked, not expecting my reply to be “the traditions of citizenship: Lockean liberalism, civic republicanism and ascriptive hierarchy”. She roared with laughter. “Librarians have to know that?” These concepts described by the American political scientist (and native son), Rogers Smith are a fundamental building block in understanding the relationship between Internet use and citizenship. As librarians and information specialists of all varieties, we need to be aware of these concepts, how they are active in the lives of our patrons and institutions, and participate in developing public policies to assure that as political and civic institutions embrace information technology to reach their constituencies, they accommodate the needs of minority, poor and less-educated among us who, perhaps, have the most to gain-economically and politically-from digital citizenship (daily Internet use). Premise of book: The book, Digital Citizenship: The Internet, Society and Participation [1], updates previous collective research on virtual inequality to demonstrate the impact of exclusion from online society among disadvantaged Americans.[2] What the authors Karen Mossberger, Caroline Tolbert and Ramona McNeal learned about internet access and use patterns is as interesting as how they learned it. Using research methods unique to them, they deconstruct recent national opinion surveys using multivariate methods of data analysis to develop a nuanced understanding of patterns of Internet access and use among disadvantaged subgroups of Americans.

  • Introduction Information and Public Organizations - a Brave New World?
    INTRODUCTION INFORMATION AND PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS - A BRAVE NEW WORLD? Karen Mossberger Kent State University Abstract What topic could be more appropriate for an electronic journal on public administration and management than the use of information (including information technology)? This issue of Public Administration and Management: An Interactive Journal is organized as a symposium on Information and Public Organizations. The information society poses new opportunities for public administration but also introduces new problems. Movement toward “digital government” promises new efficiencies and new ways of communicating with citizens. However, issues such as the digital divide raise the problem of exacerbating inequities in citizen participation and access to services. Distance learning enhances the availability of education, but changes interactions among students, and between students and instructors. Within public organizations, the use of new technology elevates organizational change onto the agenda, as new skills are needed, tasks are reconfigured, and networking across organizational boundaries becomes possible. In my own prior experience in the public sector, information technology facilitated the development of a collaborative network of job training programs within Detroit’s Empowerment Zone, but implementing inter-organizational cooperation was far from simple, despite the good will of all of the organizations involved. Familiar problems also persist despite innovations. Technology has reduced the cost of acquiring information by curtailing the time and effort needed for information search. Yet technology cannot solve other problems associated with information use in decision-making. By way of example, the web site of the National School-to-Work Learning Center serves as the anchor for a virtual policy community, which includes the U.S.

  • The Effects of E-Government on Trust and Confidence in Government
    The Effects of E-Government on Trust and Confidence in Government Caroline Tolbert Department of Political Science 302 Bowman Hall Kent State University Kent, OH 44242 [email protected] And Karen Mossberger Department of Political Science 302 Bowman Hall Kent State University Kent, OH 44242 [email protected] Arguments that e-government may improve citizen trust in government have not been sufficiently tested. We are interested in exploring the potential for e-government to influence citizen attitudes about government, across various population groups, including those with limited technology access and skill. This paper surveys literature relevant to e-government and its effect on civic trust, and summarizes our previous research on citizen attitudes on e-government. We propose further research using an Internet- based experiment that will expose a random sample of respondents to government web sites that are chosen to represent best practices for different types of sites. Surveys administered before and after exposure to the sites will measure any significant changes in attitudes about government in general, as well as perceptions of e-government. Oversampling of low-income and minority respondents will allow us to explore any differential impact across demographic groups. The Effects of E-Government on Trust and Confidence in Government Recent research suggests that e-government may have a positive effect on citizen confidence in government. Using a 2000 commercial survey, West (forthcoming) finds that knowledge about e- government does not increase citizen trust in government, but does increase perceptions of effectiveness. While intriguing, these findings are based on information provided to survey respondents about e- government, rather than actual experience with e-government.
