“…Information dissemination is the simplest form of participation which translates into informing citizens about decisions that affect them. The information function should be a standard procedure for the functioning of public administration (Kasymova, 2014). In Poland, information is the basic duty of local authorities and is an important instrument for building trust between local authorities and citizens.…”

Social participation is most often perceived as a means of external cooperation between public authorities and citizens. It should be based on a common and consensual identification of problem issues and their resolution in a meaningful way through the exchange and justification of reasons, mutual education, and training and acquisition of civic competences. The basis of social participation in the local dimension is the use of citizens' rights. The active attitude of citizens is an important guarantor in building a civic commune in which residents are not the object but the subject of public policy. Therefore, social participation favors building relations between self-government and citizens based on the principle of partnership and participation in local decision-making processes.The purpose of the article is to evaluate the activity and involvement of local administration in creating appropriate conditions for the active participation of citizens in the field of social participation. In order to achieve this goal, surveys were conducted among the inhabitants of four cities with poviat status in Podkarpackie Province, Poland, namely, Rzeszów, Krosno, Przemyśl, and Tarnobrzeg. The research has shown that the local community of Podkarpackie cities rarely uses the various forms of social participation offered to them by the local administration. This is why the administration's activities should focus on making residents aware of the benefits of participation. Providing residents with relevant information on the principles, forms, or methods of participation may prejudge the quality of life in a given local government and the course of its development.

El objetivo del presente artículo es determinar las condiciones necesarias para el ejercicio del presupuesto participativo en Bogotá. Con base en lo anterior se hace un análisis del marco normativo de la participación ciudadana en Colombia, con el fin de establecer las condiciones ya desarrolladas para la ejecución del presupuesto participativo. Posteriormente, se desarrolla un diagnóstico de los principales programas de participación a nivel nacional e internacional utilizando la “escalera de la participación” de Arnstein con la intención de resaltar las fallas en la promoción de la participación y en el desarrollo de los presupuestos participativos. Finalmente, se propone un proceso participativo que sintetiza las condiciones habilitantes enunciadas y los aprendizajes de los casos nacionales e internacionales.

“…These can be augmented by including more case studies and highlighting best practices in local e-government implementation. Moreover, there is less focus on the expectations of citizens and stakeholders in developing e-government initiatives (Kasymova 2014). Consequently, e-government research needs to focus more on the demand side of e-government and stakeholder participation in developing e-government systems.…”

Over the past two decades, governments have used information and communication technologies (ICTs) to integrate their internal functions and improve their delivery of services. Scholars and practitioners have conceptualized these various ICT trends and referred to them collectively as e-government. As the number of citizens using the Internet and mobile technologies increases, the public sector is constantly innovating to keep pace with the changing technologies and citizens’ expectations. This essay reviews the academic literature on e-government among local governments and explores the issues related to its adoption and implementation. Adopting an e-government stages perspective with attention to institutional capacity, the essay examines the factors and determinants of local e-government success. The essay concludes with directions for future research on e-government and innovation in local governments.
