Resumo Esse texto apresenta um sumário das pesquisas realizadas pelo Grupo de Políticas Públicas para Acesso à Informação GPOPAI) desde 2006 sobre o financiamento público de conteúdos científicos. Os resultados apontam que, apesar do intenso investimento público no Brasil, o setor privado vem se apropriando e impondo barreiras ao acesso a livros técnico-científicos e artigos científicos – neste caso, em especial, as editoras estrangeiras. No que se refere ao software produzido na academia, os dados apontam para uma completa indiferença da comunidade e à ausência de políticas públicas para o seu acesso. De modo geral, os resultados indicam para a necessidade de uma reforma na lei de direitos autorais, de modo a atualizá-la face as novas tecnologias de informação e comunicação e a atender ao interesse público do acesso ao conhecimento que as tecnologias digitais proporcionam. Palavras-chave acesso ao conhecimento, direitos autorais, financiamento público, ciência Abstract This paper presents a summary of research conducted since 2006 on public funding of scientific contents by the Public Policy Group for Access to Information (GPOPAI). The results suggest that in the case of technical and scientific books and scientific articles, the private sector is creating and imposing barriers to access to knowledge, despite of intensive public investments in Brazil. In relation to software produced by universities, the community is completely indifferent and there is a lack of public policies for its access. Overall, the results indicate the need for a profound reform and update of copyright law regarding new information and communication technologies, considering the public interest in access to knowledge.

Material Form

This paper investigates how public discourses, as articulated in EU policy and Austrian media documents, take part in the creation and stabilisation of a new patient figure – the e-patient. The documents we analysed act as one material form for enacting, performing and giving meaning to the changes occurring when a new technology enters established networks in the medical realm. Our analysis will show that the public discourses we studied deploy three rather different forms of discursive registers, each of which address and perform a specific relation between currently new information and communication technologies and citizen-patients. From one place, moment or problem-solution package to the next a slightly different hybrid and ‘multiple citizen-patient’ is being shaped, discussed, observed or concealed. The multiplicity we observed reveals crucial tensions and contradicting expectations expressed towards the future citizen-patient, showing the challenges for e-health in the making.

Institutional Communication

Efficient communication is one the most important instruments used for the purpose of generating change inside and outside an organization. It can contribute to adjusting attitudes and the manner of approaching the present and future challenges and to changing behavioral patterns. The mission and the objectives of organizational communication are highly interrelated with organizational change and environment characteristics, in which the organization functions. The communication performed by the public administration institution outside is an institutional communication, extra-organizational, which presents the following purposes: strengthening its image, stimulating an environment of trust and affinity from the citizens (Kotler & Lee, 2007). We are of opinion that the management of communication performed by a public administration institution features three fundamental aspects, relevant for institutional communicators when designing and managing the institutional communication: communication efficiency, communication process and the implications of the new information and communication technologies (ICT) for this process.

The Right

Privacy uses the theory of natural rights and generally responds to new information and communication technologies. In North America, Samuel D. Warren and Louis D. Brandeis wrote that privacy is the “right to be let alone” (Warren & Brandeis, 1890) and focuses on protecting individuals. This citation was a response to recent technological developments, such as photography, and sensationalist journalism, also known as yellow journalism. Warren and Brandeis declared that information which was previously hidden and private could now be “shouted from the rooftops.” But whether the right to privacy may be limited in the case of public figures and whether public figures are accountable for their actions is up for debate. This issue is explored in this chapter through court decisions that occupied the public.

With the advent of the digital age also arrived the new information and communication technologies and with them mobile devices, which changed the way in which humanity communicates both day by day and in professional ways. The forms of interpersonal interaction, the forms of journalism production and the forms of access to information all changed. This text explores a project with a strong interest in the practices that occur in traditional newsrooms, related to written journalism, and the use of smartphones and tablets to produce publishable journalistic content on their digital platforms. PEMO —short Spanish counterpart to MOJO— Cafetero, in short, is a research project that aims to account of the usage practices of smartphones and tablets in the newsrooms of three traditional media outlets in the Colombian Coffee Region: La Patria from Manizales, El Diario from Pereira and La Crónica del Quindío from Armenia.

This chapter presents the essence of critical success factors with focus on building capacity for electronic governance (eGovernance) in a developing country jurisdiction. The results are borne of the authors’ years of experience with regard to national eGovernance implementations in developing member countries of the Commonwealth. Critical success factors (CSFs) denote those aspects of, or associated with, the new information and communication technologies (ICTs), which may be perceived as comprising core, key or critical factors against which the level of capability of National Capacity for ICT or eGovernance may be assessed, measured and/or interpreted. CSFs, perceived to be critical for the success of any eGovernance initiative is best modelled as a three-tier minimalist framework, comprising CSFs at levels described as macro-, meso-, and micro- levels. The nature of any given ICT initiative which is appropriate nationally in central government, locally in local government, or in the public service, in the civil service, or in some selected sector or jurisdiction of the national economy, whether existing or planned, and whether implicit or explicit, must take cognisance of the need for the identification of CSFs at the inception stage of the initiative.

Right Of Access

Critics of the notion or concept of “information society” have often made claims to put the new ICTs into a more historical and institutional context. As a response, in this chapter, the more than 200-year-old right of access to governmental information is selected as a reference point. A comprehensive review of literature reveals that this right can be analyzed from various perspectives. Examples are the politics, policy, and polity perspective; the market perspective; and the citizenship perspective. Each perspective highlights different aspects of the impacts a right of access to information can possibly have. The citizenship perspective turns out to be particularly interesting, because the traditional, but changeable concept of citizenship, and the right of access to information interact with each other. In a second step, the same perspectives can be utilized for an analysis of documents and literature on new Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in order to determine whether truly new and original elements are added to what has previously been analyzed in terms of access to information rights. The application of the freedom of information perspectives to Internet-based access to information allows for the identification of interesting research questions on the changing concept of citizenship, the future of national and transnational governance and the future of regulation.

The development of the new information and communication technologies, which favored the modern societies transformation into knowledge-based society, forced a reconsideration of the governance principles based on what Abraham Lincoln said “Governance of citizens by citizens and for citizens''. The knowledge society coordinates raises new challenges for the public system, offering, at the same time, the opportunity to do activities more efficient and to development those approach that brings the citizen closer to public systems. Basically, by reconsidering and by emerging in the public system of concepts such as ethics, social responsibility and sustainable development it has been created the coordinates of oriented citizens implementation framework. Governments around the world are making significant efforts towards e-governance assimilation and implementation. These efforts are not focused only on the digitization process itself, but also target a broader reorganization of the public services process and of the participation processes based on the new information technologies. The article presents, based on a detailed analysis of the literature, different models that capture and define the relationships developed by public institutions with various categories of stakeholders.
