This research deconstructs complexity as a key challenge of intergovernmental digitalisation projects. While much of the literature acknowledges that the fundamental restructuring coupled with technical capacity that these joint projects require leads to increased complexity, little is known about how different types of complexity interact within the collaborative process. Using established concepts of substantive, strategic, and institutional complexity, we apply complexity theory in collaborative digital environments. To do so, eight digital projects are analysed that differ by state structure and government level. Using a cross-case design with 50 semi-structured expert interviews, we find that each digitalisation project exhibits all types of complexity and that these complexities overlap. However, clear differences emerge between national and local level projects, suggesting that complexity in digitalisation processes presents different challenges for collaborative digitalisation projects across contexts.

This article aims to initiate a conversation about the democratic quality of co-creation. There is growing interest in co-creation as a tool for mobilizing societal resources, enhancing creative problem-solving, and building broad-based ownership for public solutions. While researchers have focused on the contribution of co-creation to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of public governance, few researchers have discussed the democratic quality of co-creation. This lacuna is filled by exploring the democratic contribution of co-creation through a comparison with well-known forms of democracy. The claim is that the democratic quality of co-creation lies in its ability to empower lay actors to take part in cross-boundary collaboration that may lead to creative problem-solving and to the exercise of a shared power based on joint agreements about innovative public value outcomes. The article is mainly theoretical and engaged in prospective analysis but also draws on empirical examples to illustrate the theoretical points.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a technological development is being implemented in the public sector with the intention of improving service delivery, as well as to help solve complex problems. However, there is a wide range of capabilities that AI can perform and that public officials perceive and implement in different ways. This paper aims to describe and analyze some categories into which AI capabilities in the public sector are divided. Using an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), our results show that the capabilities of AI from the perspective of public officials can be classified into two aspects: systematic factors and axiological factors. Systematic factors are related to the analysis and behavior of data, including monitoring, analyzing, interacting, remembering, and anticipation. Axiological factors refer to the impacts of values, ethics, and decisions, including acting, feeling, moralizing, creating, and deciding capacities. This categorization of AI capabilities in the public sector sheds light on the perception of public officials about the implementation of this technological development.

Involving users in innovating public services is an increasingly common, but challenging practice, as users often have different viewpoints on their own role in the process. Particularly in complex innovation arrangements such as public-private collaborations, governments and service innovators need to be aware of users’ perceptions of their involvement to maximally exploit the advantages of including them. This article theorizes and tests four different roles of user-provider interaction on co-innovation processes: users as (1) legitimators, (2) customers, (3) partners, and (4) self-organizers. These theoretical roles are tested through Q-methodology on service users in 19 public-private eHealth collaborations from five European countries. Our findings suggest the existence of three hybrid empirical profiles of user involvement: (1) users as ‘service consultants’, (2) users as ‘co-designers’, and (3) users as ‘hands-off supporters’. The discovery of these profiles suggests the existence of different viewpoints on user involvement, which can influence the expectations and behavior of the users in innovation processes.

This paper aims to provide an overview based on the literatures regarding the development of the study of policy dynamics research in the field of public administration. The study aims to answer the research question, „What is the theoretical and conceptual framework of „policy dynamics“ in the contemporary discourse of current public administration?“. The method used is a bibliometric analysis and semi-systematic literature review in the form of a literature review of international publications published between 1990 and 2020, sourced from the Google Scholar database. The sixty articles that are most relevant in terms of Article title, Abstract, and Keywords (journal articles: 55 papers and Conferences proceedings: 5 papers) are chosen for analysis. As a result, policy dynamics can be grouped into three categories: policy dynamics as historical institutionalism, policy dynamics as policy change, and policy dynamics as policy evolution. This study concludes that policy dynamics is the evolution of policy changes, where these changes have implications for the policies of a regime/government on institutions, actors, and systems within a certain period. This concept manifests in the five new clusters in the definition of policy dynamics, which include regime/government change, institutional change/transformation, changes in issue, direction and content of policy, actor's role and existence, and policy object inputs and outputs.

Financial market failures lead to deadweight (welfare) loss for society. Assessment of the deadweight loss started with the so-called Harberger Triangles, where Harberger offered a clear and persuasive derivation of the triangle method of analysing the deadweight loss and applied the method to estimate deadweight losses due to income taxes in the United States. Hertog further put the deadweight loss into the model with government intervention to assess the optimal level of welfare loss control. This concept is central to regulatory economics. Harberger’s approach is based on the deviation of market equilibrium measured in terms of price and quantity. When analysing imperfect competition as one of the market failures, authors have identified in the literature variables for “price” and “quantity”. The research presents the approach how calculating the deadweight loss arising from the imperfect competition using the following variables: “price” – interest rates (loans), “quantity” – exposure of loans on banks’ balance sheets. The outcome of the research is integral for the assessment of the deadweight loss arising from imperfect competition. Deadweight loss calculations for selected countries show results corresponding to the expectation to be lower than 12% - the maximum value is 4,6% for Latvia, which experienced the most significant increase in the banking market concentration from the sample. Research methods used: literature analysis, regression analysis, and mathematical analysis tools (integrals).

In 2021, Lithuania faced the challenge of managing the crisis of new type of migration across the Belarusian border, which threatened the security of the country and its citizens. A broad set of inter-institutional collaboration strategies and methods were used among the public institutions to address this crisis. Such inter-institutional collaboration has been a multifaceted and complex process, involving both known and new good practices. The aim of this article is to provide insights into good collaborative practices between the Lithuanian national defence and internal affairs systems in managing the migrant crisis. Following the expert interview results, the study identified three good practices of inter-institutional collaboration: (i) the creation of a single dissemination channel for the crisis response services, which ensured that all actors were in the same information field; (ii) the delegation of representatives of the institutions to teams at strategic, operational and tactical levels; and (iii) inter-institutional information sharing ensured good situational awareness at an early stage of emergency management. Lessons learned from the collaboration between the institutions of the national defence and internal affairs systems can be applied to improve inter-institutional collaboration in other areas. The research results can be used to enhance the process of such collaboration in addressing current emergency management issues and serve as a basis for effective and smooth emergency preparedness and response where inter-institutional synergy is needed.

Problematisations as taken-for-granted “truths” practices making it crucial to look at them critically and to draw attention to any potentially harmful consequences they may have. The main aim of this article is to examine how the issue of parental alcohol’s harm to children is problematised in the child protection and support processes in Lithuania. Data from 20 semi-structured interviews with key child welfare and protection experts were analysed using Bacchi’s problematisation approach strategy. Professionals think that parental intoxication is damaging to children, and because of the issues they perceive, most of their work is focused on measures to enhance parental behaviour. This approach to the problem distances professionals from the harm that children are experiencing. It is typical to remove children from intoxicated parents and re-unite them once the parents sober up. Professionals rely on their own moral principles and ideals, particularly the desire to maintain “family unity”. Long-term harm develops when children who need support are undervalued and neglected. Because child welfare practices focus on a small portion of the problems, the harm to the children’s personalities and development is not adequately addressed. Analyses showed that the problematisation of parental alcohol abuse-related harm to children by professionals impacts the presumed result, which is that children are the “visible but unprotected victims”. The professional field of problematisation of alcohol’s harm to children brought on by parental alcohol misuse must consider crucial elements such as understanding childhood trauma and its long-term effects on child development, knowing how to respond to it when it occurs, and understanding how to avoid harmful long-term consequences.

Aukščiausios Tarybos-Atkuriamojo Seimo parlamentarių indėlis į naujos viešosios politikos kūrimą per demokratiškai išrinkto parlamento priimtus įstatymus, parodant rinkimų kampanijos metu moterų organizacijų ir judėjimų kurtas platformas ir jų programas, nėra tirtas. Sąjūdžio ir LKP bei kitų atsikūrusių ir susikūrusių partijų rinkiminės kampanijos yra plačiai analizuotos, tačiau tame kontekste neliko atsikūrusių moterų organizacijų iškeltų moterų kandidačių, remtų ir neremtų Sąjūdžio į LTSR AT. Straipsnyje, remiantis archyviniais šaltinais ir tuometine spauda, parodoma rinkiminė kova ir tuo metu veikiančių moterų organizacijų ir moterų judėjimų (Motinų, Moterų Sąjūdžių) kuriamos rinkiminės platformos. Taip pat analizuojama išrinktų į XII šaukimo LTSR Aukščiausiąją Tarybą – Lietuvos Aukščiausiąją Tarybą keturiolikos moterų veikla. Pažymėtina, jog didžiausias jų dėmesys buvo sutelktas į įstatymų projektų pasiūlymus, susijusius su šeima, moterimis, vaikais. Nebuvo nei vieno pasiūlyto įstatymo projekto, kaip apsaugoti moteris darbo rinkoje, bet buvo teikiami įstatymų projektai, grąžinantys jas į šeimą. Tai buvo neatsitiktinis reiškinys, nes Lietuvos Persitvarkymo Sąjūdžio ir jo moterų rėmimo grupėse, pvz. „Saulėtekis“, Motinų ir Moterų sąjūdžiai programose akcentavo šeimos stiprinimo klausimą, tačiau jam išspręsti siūlė tik vieną kelią – „moteris grąžinti į šeimą“, neatsižvelgiant į tuo metu jau Statistikos departamento ir mokslininkų vykdytus tyrimus apie moterų išsakomą poziciją šiuo klausimu. Tai „buldozerinės“ politikos Lietuvoje pavyzdys, kuris turėjo ilgalaikes negatyvias pasekmes Lietuvos visuomenei ir ypač moterims. Straipsnio tikslas – atskleisti moterų parlamentarių indėlį į naujos viešosios politikos kūrimą per Lietuvos Aukščiausios Tarybos priimtus įstatymus, parodant rinkiminės kampanijos metu moterų organizacijų ir judėjimų kurtas platformas. Straipsnyje naudoti tyrimo metodai: mokslinės literatūros lyginamoji analizė, dokumentų analizė, pirminių (archyvinių dokumentų) ir antrinių (tuometinės spaudos) šaltinių analizė ir sintezė), kokybinis tyrimas (interviu).
