ABSTRACT
The widespread use of new technologies and the progressive democratiza-
tion of the internet have involved multiple transformations of social reality in
recent years. Governments are trying to keep up with the new forms of social
interaction present in the daily scenario. Within this effort, the incorporation
of technological strategies that allow designing alternative models of public
management emerge as a need. In this context of the configuration of new
public management strategies, a new model has emerged, attracting the atten-
tion of academics, civil servants and civil society: Open Government (OG).
OG proposes to reinvent governance by introducing elements that combine the
use of new technologies with the strengthening of democratic values. Trans-
parency, citizen participation, collaboration, open data and accountability are
the main pillars of a new political-administrative action under the perspective
of OG.
Public administrations are increasingly adopting open government policies.
However, few social science studies have tried to explain the processes and
factors with which this type of strategies are assumed. Understanding the per-
ception of the OG concept and analyzing the strategies that are used to imple-
ment it is a task that must be developed by different sectors, but especially by
the academy. It is important to carry out this type of analysis within less ex-
plored areas, such as local public administrations. These have developed some
of the most ambitious OG initiatives in recent years, although the phenomenon
has been promoted in a broader way through international agencies and nation-
al governments.
Local governments and administrations represent the first political-admin-
istrative contact for citizens. It is therefore crucial to generate empirical evi-
dence to understand the transition of the phenomenon from national and in-
ternational to local levels of government. In this way, it is important to
understand the perceptions of those who are managing this type of public
policies and analyze the implications that OG practices are having at the mu-
nicipal level.
