Social Media Track @
EGOV-CeDEM-ePart 2019
Conference website: http://*dgsoc.org*/egov-2019/

Digital and social media are central for government, public
administration, democratic and political processes and communication.
One the one hand they are increasingly important interface between
governments, the public sector and their respective publics, and on the
other hand, they also play an important role for innovation in the
public sector, improving public service delivery and providing
opportunities for public participation.

Social media applications and digital tools have also reshaped the
nature of collaboration within public organizations, across governance
networks, impacting political communication and campaigning. Whilst
social media is extensively used in politics and by political figures,
governments still struggle to understand how best to use social media
and to develop a social media strategy, how to implement them for
operational activities and the digital transformation of the
organisation, improve services and achieve change and strategic goals.

We invite relevant studies on social media in the public sector that
draw on conceptual, case study, survey, mixed or other suitable methods.

Areas of focus and interest include but are not limited to the
following topics:
New theoretical perspectives and critical analyses of digital
interactions;
Strategies and policies for the planning and implementation of social
media;
Use and significance of social analytics in political communication and
public organizations;
Organizational issues relevant to the implementation of social media in
democratic contexts and the transformation of public administration;
Stakeholders and digital publics of government engagement on social
media;
Enterprise/organizational networking and knowledge sharing
applications; Internal and informal digital networks in public
administration;
The role of social media in digital transformation;
The use of technology and social media for co-production,
crowdsourcing, citizen-sourcing, co-creation and other crowd-based
models (e.g. in regulation, bottom-up initiatives, open source
movements);
Mobilisation, social movements and other forms of digital engagement
enabled by social media;
Social media in crisis and emergency management;
Ethical, privacy, regulatory and policy issues related to social
media;
Evaluation of the impact of social media in various contexts;
New methods, challenges and opportunities of social media data;
Design methods and user experience in digital collaboration;
