EU u-Government: A Solution for More Citizen Participation in EU Policy-making
Original language description
EU democracy has been traditionally practised through representation. This chapter argues that more citizen participation in EU policy-making is plausible, thanks to ubiquitous computing, mixed reality technology and virtual spaces. Current technology and IT services can remedy problems of time and space, the biggest obstacles for active civic involvement in EU governance. The chapter starts with the advantages and disadvantages of applying ubiquitous government (u-government) in policy-making. The following section investigates how practising democracy at EU level can be facilitated through u-government, augmenting citizen participation in EU governance. The third section proposes a conceptual model for using mixed reality technology and u-government in the EU context. The conclusion briefly reflects on the future of citizen participation in the frame of an EU e-democracy.
