Abstract

Smart city projects rely upon dynamic and complex multi-stakeholder collaboration. This collaboration can be challenging. In this study, we use an instrumental lens and argue that tools can help public professionals in dealing with smart governance challenges. Building upon smart governance and collaborative governance models, we conceptualize smart governance as a toolbox. Based on our “smart governance toolbox”, we assess the variety of tools available for professionals to initiate and support multi-stakeholder collaboration by reviewing academic and grey literature. This review results in the identification of a broad range of tools that research and practice have developed. However, we also demonstrate that certain parts of the ‘smart governance toolbox’ remain almost empty: there are few tools for assessing the smart collaborative governance context, facilitating the collaborative structure, tackling technology issues, and measuring outcomes of smart city practices. Future design research should focus on developing instruments needed to make the smart governance toolbox complete.

智能治理工具箱:系统文献综述

智慧城市项目依赖于动态和复杂的多方利益相关者合作。这种合作可能具有挑战性。在本研究中，我们使用工具性视角，并认为工具可以帮助公共专业人员应对智能治理挑战。在智能治理和协作治理模型的基础上，我们将智能治理概念化为一个工具箱。基于我们的“智能治理工具箱”，我们通过回顾学术文献和灰色文献，评估了专业人员启动和支持多利益相关者协作的各种可用工具。这一审查的结果是确定了研究和实践已经开发的广泛的工具。然而，我们也证明了“智能治理工具箱”的某些部分几乎是空白的:用于评估智能协作治理环境、促进协作结构、解决技术问题和衡量智慧城市实践成果的工具很少。未来的设计研究应侧重于开发使智能治理工具箱完整所需的工具。

期刊介绍： Smart Cities (ISSN 2624-6511) provides an advanced forum for the dissemination of information on the science and technology of smart cities, publishing reviews, regular research papers (articles) and communications in all areas of research concerning smart cities. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible, with no restriction on the maximum length of the papers published so that all experimental results can be reproduced.
