  • Cities @ Crossroads: Digital Technology and Local Democracy in America Jennifer Shkabatur
    Brooklyn Law Review Volume 76 | Issue 4 Article 4 2011 Cities @ Crossroads: Digital Technology and Local Democracy in America Jennifer Shkabatur Follow this and additional works at: https://brooklynworks.brooklaw.edu/blr Recommended Citation Jennifer Shkabatur, Cities @ Crossroads: Digital Technology and Local Democracy in America, 76 Brook. L. Rev. (2011). Available at: https://brooklynworks.brooklaw.edu/blr/vol76/iss4/4 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Law Journals at BrooklynWorks. It has been accepted for inclusion in Brooklyn Law Review by an authorized editor of BrooklynWorks. Cities @ Crossroads DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY AND LOCAL DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA Jennifer Shkabatur* Digital technology’s transformative potential for democratic governance is hardly questioned, but it has not yet been tackled in legal scholarship. This article starts filling this gap by exploring digital technology’s role in local governance. The article situates the relations between cities and citizens along two complementary axes: (1) consumerism (i.e., citizens are regarded as consumers of city-provided services) and (2) participation (i.e., citizens play an active role in local decision making and agenda setting). The article explains how digital technology fits into this framework and develops performance criteria to evaluate local digital initiatives. Next, the article argues, while American cities reasonably satisfy consumerist, service-provision requirements, they fail to benefit from digital technology’s participatory potential. This result is lamentable, but it is not inevitable. Drawing on recent digital initiatives in various European cities, the article proposes a framework to enhance digital participatory practices in American municipalities.

The paper develops a framework of possible actions regarding Internet or cyber governance to produce contexts for the timeline of significant policy statements by U.S. government officials and agencies on the topic. In the resulting narrative, Internet governance policy rises from a relatively marginal issue for the foreign policy establishment to a significant component of U.S.

  • Solutions Government Technology Opportunity in the 21St Century
    Appendix Report and Article Summaries As mentioned in the Introduction in Volume 1, this report from the Commission on Government Technology Opportunity in the 21st Century is the latest of many studies that examine and recommend improvements to the Federal Government’s IT acquisition process. What makes this study distinctive is that it focuses not only on recommendations for improving the process, but also on specific actions that OMB, individual agencies, and industry can take to overcome obstacles that have impeded the implementation of similar recommendations in the past. Thus, while contributing a new perspective, this report also owes much to and draws much from previous reports as well as articles from a variety of publications that have focused on similar issues. These publications are listed in Figure A-1 and summarized in the pages that follow.

    Testimony of Aneesh Chopra Chief Technology Officer and Associate Director for Technology Office of Science and Technology Policy Executive Office of the President of the United States Before The Subcommittee on Federal Financial Management, Government Information, Federal Services, and International Security Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs United States Senate Hearing on “Removing the Shroud of Secrecy: Making Government More Transparent and Accountable” March 23, 2010 Chairman Carper, Senator McCain, and Members of the Committee, it is an honor to appear before you today. Since the first day of his Administration, President Obama has been committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in government, working to ensure the public trust through establishing a system of transparency, public participation and collaboration. As Assistant to the President, Chief Technology Officer, and Associate Director for Technology in the Office of Science and Technology Policy, I am pleased to provide an update on these efforts and the Administration’s Open Government Initiative. This update builds upon the Open Government Progress Report to the American People that was published in December of 2009. The Open Government Initiative is representative of the effort that I am focused on to harness the power and potential of technology, data and innovation to transform the nation’s economy and improve the lives of everyday Americans. I. Open Government Progress In December, OMB Director Peter Orszag published the President’s Open Government Directive to hardwire accountability, access, and public participation into government operations. The development of the Directive demonstrated in practice our commitment to public participation, when over the course of a month-long pilot initiative held in the summer of 2009, we were able to demonstrate the benefits of emerging technologies such as blogs, wikis, and “crowdsourced” ideas platforms.
