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.}, Doi = {10.1007/s13347-019-0340-z}, Key = {fds348829} } @article{fds372304, Author = {Rogerson, KS and Heiss, A}, Title = {Sources of Advocacy: When Does the Media Give Voice to Egyptian Advocacy NGOs?}, Year = {2014}, Month = {August}, Key = {fds372304} } @article{fds299368, Author = {Rogerson, K and Milton, D}, Title = {A Policymaking Process "Tug-of-War": National Information Security Policies in Comparative Perspective}, Journal = {Journal of Information Technology and Politics}, Volume = {10}, Number = {4}, Pages = {462-476}, Publisher = {Informa UK Limited}, Year = {2013}, Month = {October}, ISSN = {1933-1681}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/19331681.2013.843989}, 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 Copyright Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.}, Doi = {10.1080/19331681.2013.843989}, Key = {fds299368} } @article{fds299373, Author = {Rogerson, K}, Title = {"The 'Free' Flow of Information: Global Attempts at Internet Censorship and its Impact on Civil Society"}, Journal = {Politics and Internet}, Year = {2012}, Key = {fds299373} } @article{fds299374, Author = {Rogerson, K}, Title = {"National Information Security Policies in Comparative Perspective}, Journal = {Journal of Information Technology and Politics}, Year = {2012}, Key = {fds299374} } @article{fds375518, Author = {Rogerson, KS and Milton, D}, Title = {It's 2010, Do You Know Where Your Information Is?

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 Political Science Association 2008.}, Doi = {10.1017/S1049096508081109}, Key = {fds299371} } @article{fds299375, Author = {Altman, M and Rogerson, K}, Title = {"Open Research Questions on Information and Technology in Global and Domestic Policis - Beyond 'E-'"}, Journal = {PS: Political Science and Politics}, Volume = {XLI}, Number = {4}, Pages = {835-837}, Year = {2008}, Month = {October}, Key = {fds299375} } @article{fds46444, Author = {K.S.

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 action. © 1998 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.}, Doi = {10.1080/105846098198821}, Key = {fds299376} } @article{fds46453, Author = {K.S.

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.}, Doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-74420-5_4}, Key = {fds357893} } @misc{fds368947, Author = {Rogerson, KS and Milton, D}, Title = {Internet diffusion and the digital divide The role of policy-making and political institutions}, Pages = {415-423}, Booktitle = {Routledge Handbook of Internet Politics}, Publisher = {Routledge}, Editor = {Andrew Chadwick and Philip N.

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.}, Doi = {10.4324/9780203962541-34}, Key = {fds368947} } @misc{fds345373, Author = {Rogerson, KS}, Title = {Internet as Political Advocacy Forum}, Volume = {2}, Pages = {503-508}, Booktitle = {Encyclopedia of International Media and Communications}, Year = {2003}, Month = {January}, ISBN = {9780123876706}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/B0-12-387670-2/00141-2}, 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.

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.
