Public Values in the Age of Big Data: A Public Information Perspective

Abstract: Public administration scholars have so far largely viewed big data as a kind of technocratic transformation. However, through citizens’ digital records, use of service apps, social media, digital sensors, and other digital footprints, big data also gives policymakers insights into citizen choices and is therefore potentially supportive of public values such as participation and openness. Focusing on two underexplored countries, Germany and the Netherlands, this article develops a public values framework for bi… Show more

“…BDA tools must therefore be incorporated into the study of public agencies. One of the challenges identified by Giest (2017) and Ingrams (2019) is limited institutional support for BD management and capacity within the government. As highlighted by MAMPU (2017), when the government has low level of analytical capacity, they would have to source for additional stakeholders with the right skill sets.…”

Along with digital records of citizens, the use of service apps, social media, digital sensors, and other digital footprints, big data also give policymakers insights into citizen choice and is, therefore, potentially supportive of public value such as participation and openness (Ingrams, 2018). Veenstra & Kotterink (2017) state that data can be used for the real time monitoring of policy.…”
