摘要

就民主的包容性而言,文献中强调了使用数字媒体的机会和风险。然而,对数字媒体的使用和公民参与的包容性的实证研究是有限的。更具体地说,我们对数字媒体的“丰富性”与公民参与的包容性之间的关系理解有限。在COVID-19大流行期间,政府引入数字参与,为研究数字参与与公民参与的包容性之间的关系提供了一个非常有趣的情况。本文对荷兰的五个案例进行了评估,以探讨数字参与的媒体丰富性在多大程度上影响了公民参与的包容性。我们的研究结果几乎没有显示公民被排除在外的迹象,相反,当通过数字媒体促进访问时,更多的公民参与了进来。总体情况是,特别是精益数字工具,网络研讨会,在访问方面增强了包容性,但只有更丰富的工具,互动平台,才能促进参与,与公民互动。令我们惊讶的是,我们发现混合形式的参与在提供包容性互动的机会方面存在不足。在论文的最后,我们建议各国政府通过连续使用精益媒体(网络研讨会)和富媒体(平台和线下会议)来实现广泛和深入的包容性民主,以促进参与和与公民互动。

Online democratic participation during COVID-19
In terms of the inclusivity of democracy, both the opportunities and risks of using digital media have been highlighted in the literature. Empirical research into the use of digital media and the inclusivity of citizen participation, however, is limited. More specifically, we have a limited understand of the relation between the ‘richness’ of digital media and the inclusivity of citizen engagement The introduction of digital participation by governments during the COVID-19 pandemic presents a highly interesting situation for studying the relation between digital participation and the inclusivity of citizen engagement. This paper presents an assessment of five cases in the Netherlands to explore to what extent the media richness of digital participation affects the inclusivity of citizen engagement. Our findings present few indications for the exclusion of citizens and, in contrast, highlight the participation of more citizens when access was facilitated through digital media. The overall picture that emerges is that especially lean digital tools, webinars, enhance inclusivity in terms of access but only richer tools, interactive platforms, also facilitate participation as interaction with citizens. To our surprise, we found that hybrid forms of participation fall short in providing opportunities for inclusive interaction. We end the paper by recommending governments to realize both broad and in-depth inclusive democracy by sequential use of lean media – webinars – to boost the access to participation and rich media – platforms and offline meetings – for interactions with citizens.
