Are we heading towards more open government?

This first issue of the new IDS Bulletin – which has just relaunched as an Open Access publication – brings together research on recent contributions to more open, transparent, accountable and responsive governance. They also discuss weaknesses that limit the effectiveness and impact of these contributions. The articles – by researchers and practitioners – approach contemporary challenges of achieving transparency, accountability and openness from a wide range of subject positions and professional and disciplinary angles. Together the editors hope to give a sense of what has changed in this fast-moving field, and what has not. The whole issue is freely available online to all users and can be accessed from the IDS website here... Alternatively you can browse the articles below.
