Abstract

The article actualizes the problem of communicative interaction between public authorities and self-governing organizations as stakeholders of civil society. The understanding of the essence of self-government, typology of self-government organizations is generalized; the experience of separate legal systems on maintenance of proper communications of the power and self-government organizations in the conditions of development of digital society is studied. The research is aimed at solving the scientific problem of substantiating the conceptual foundations of building public communication systems of government and self-government organizations through the creation of technological platforms for constant constructive dialogue of self-government organizations with local authorities and local government. It is concluded that there are systemic obstacles to communication between the government and civil society. Overcoming such obstacles will ensure a qualitatively new, partnership nature of communication between government and society. The article for the first time raises the issue of creating platforms for communication between the government and self-governing organizations to ensure the participation of citizens in public administration decisions. The results of the study can be the basis for the formation of a new paradigm of the relationship between public authorities and self-governing organizations.

Highlights

  • The problem of communication between government and society is original and was solved in accordance with specific historical conditions of society based on two aspects - political and philosophical vision of the need for such communication and communicative capabilities of society, which technologically corresponded to the level of social relations, tangible and intangible culture, the nature of the political system, etc

  • It should be noted that self-governing organizations do not have the power and are not a body of public authority, they operate in the public sphere, because they are part of civil society

  • Since the government is almost incapable of communicating with all social groups, it makes sense to use the experience of implementing the concept of social institutions as a communication center between the government and its public, which in Surabaya is called Kelompok Informasi Masyarakat (KIM) [23]

Summary

Introduction

The problem of communication between government and society is original and was solved in accordance with specific historical conditions of society based on two aspects - political and philosophical vision of the need for such communication and communicative capabilities of society (tools of communicative interaction), which technologically corresponded to the level of social relations, tangible and intangible culture, the nature of the political system, etc. With the transition to a digital society, the technological conditions of the communication process have greatly improved; digital technologies have virtually removed the communication barriers that previously existed given the level of technological development of society Examples of such progress are new definitions of the science of public administration such as e-government, smart state, state in the smartphone, which define the technological essence of the new stage of development of public administration. As practice shows, technology alone does not solve the problem of communication barriers in the "power-society" chain They significantly change the nature and methods of such communication, encourage the government to determine the challenges of the digital society, but do not change the main contradiction between the authoritarian nature of government and state monopoly in this area, and trends in self-government. We mean the involvement in the decision-making processes and governance mechanisms of other stakeholders of civil and, digital society, which should become not just consumers of management services, but direct participants in management processes
