             Actionability},

   Abstract = {Democratic governments might be required by law to
             disseminate information to the people. This is called
             governmental transparency. What is the burden of
             transparency? We propose a “pragmatic information theory
             of communication” that places information accessibility as
             a foundation of transparency. Using a game model—the
             Transparency Game—we show that the pragmatic theory is the
             only one that makes it difficult for governments to appear
             transparent (transparency de vidi) while not actually being
             transparent (transparency de facto). There are two important
             consequences of understanding transparency through the
             theory: (1) Accessible information must be actionable, and
             (2) cognitive science plays a vital role in assessing the
             accessibility of information. These consequences can have
             implications for public policies that promote
             transparency.},

   Abstract = {There is tension between the ideal of government
             transparency and the need to protect vital information. What
             types of information do governments protect on national
             security grounds? What arguments do governments use to
             justify the protection of this information? What will
             influence an open government information policy as opposed
             to a closed information policy? Through an examination of
             more than 250 information security-related policies from
             around the world, it is clear that (a) all governments limit
             the flows of information, (b) there are different reasons
             for this, and (c) the reasons are not always correlated to
             government type. In other words, sometimes democracies and
             authoritarian countries limit the same types of information
             issues. The policies and policy discussions are dependent on
             a variety of actors and which actor(s) wield the strongest
             influence at the time, which makes them often get caught up
             in a policy "tug-of-war" that most often results in
             incremental policy change and implementation. © 2013

   Abstract = {Accelerating technological change is one of the defining
             characteristics of this era. And the intersection of
             information, technology, and politics is a constantly
             changing arena. Technological change can provide the subject
             for political debate, such as in the controversy over
             electronic voting (see Tokaji 2005); affect the means by
             which politics is conducted, such as in the use of
             information technologies to provide government services and
             collect regulatory feedback (see Fountain 2001; West 2005;
             and Mayer-Schonberger and Lazer 2007); or challenge our
             understanding of political theories and concepts, such as
             the meaning of privacy and of the public sphere (see Etzioni
             2000 and Sunstein 2007 on the meaning of privacy and the
             compartmentalization of public speech, Bimber 2003 on the
             effect of information technologies on democracy, and Benkler
             2006 on the reinterpretation of the public sphere). Each of
             these perspectives is visible locally, regionally,
             nationally, and globally. © 2008 Copyright The American

   Abstract = {The Internet is often seen as borderless and unmanageable
             and, therefore, not fully understandable. Starting from the
             assumption that it can be understood, we begin an attempt to
             organize the Internet by characterizing it as a behavior
             space in which groups categorized as societies, communities,
             and governments interact. We emphasize the utility of
             organizing the Internet and focus specifically on attempts
             by societies, communities, and governments to regulate the
             flow of information. We posit an Internet regulation process
             model that, we believe, explains most of the efforts to
             regulate the Internet. In addition, we provide some insight
             into the relationships between and within the various groups
             involved. Our conclusions center on the observation that
             political power (especially Western political power) has
             been a defining factor in the regulation of the Internet as
             governments have played a prominent role in regulatory

   Abstract = {Artificial intelligence (AI) is discussed quite often in the
             context of workplace automation, self-driving cars, or
             lethal autonomous weapons. Less frequent in discussions of
             artificial intelligence—both in how AI systems are
             presently in use, and how they may be deployed in the
             future—is mention of AI’s impact in the civilian public
             sphere. This is particularly true with respect to how AI is
             impacting, and will impact, public education systems around
             the world. In this chapter, we examine current uses of AI in
             public education in the United States, China, and India. We
             discuss government plans to expand those uses in the future.
             The Indian government is ahead of those in both China and
             the United States in articulating a vision for how AI can be
             used to reshape public education for the better. And we
             finally analyze these uses in the context of such
             considerations as school demographics, fairness, civil
             liberties and differing cultural views of privacy, and
             broader AI surveillance.},

   Abstract = {As governments, businesses, and society tackle the digital
             divide, understanding why the divide persists and whether it
             is widening or is narrowing is crucial. This chapter
             analyzes attempts to make policy and implement programs
             relating to the internet and the diffusion of technology in
             four constitutionally democratic countries. The aim is to
             generate hypotheses regarding the potential role of
             institutions in this process. Each case-Brazil, Estonia,
             Singapore, and the United States-is a recognized leader in
             technological diffusion in its region. While the literature
             on the digital divide emphasizes the very real impact of
             economic and societal forces, political institutions and
             policy processes are also important drivers of technology
             diffusion.},

   Abstract = {Political advocacy is the mobilization of ideas and people
             with the goal of influencing the thinking of policymakers to
             either (1) promote a specific point of view or (2) enact
             policy in the form of laws or programs that benefit the
             ideas or people. Political advocacy happens in many places
             and on many levels, though the concept is most often
             associated with democratic societies. Among the assumptions
             of these types of pluralistic societies are that there are
             many voices that want to be heard in the political process
             and that there should be (theoretically) as many avenues or
             forums as possible for those voices to be
             heard.},

   Abstract = {Karl Polanyi (1886-1964) was an anomaly among economists. He
             considered himself an economic anthropologist. What may seem
             like an oxymoron in some circles seemed perfectly logical to
             him. Traditionally, economists in general have explained the
             world in theory (other things being equal) and thus in
             isolation from social factors. In fact, the advent of
             international political economy and those who followed it
             was seen as slightly revolutionary. Not many scholars do
             work in, for example, sociological economics, philosophical
             economics or cultural economics, though research in these
             areas has been extant for some time.},
