Electronic citizen participation in the representative system (low cooperation)
Felicitas Schoenherr
"strengthens democracy through the Internet, new ways to become politically informed, get involved and organize in groups or weakens democracy by for individualization of information and communication flows and thereby leads to the splitting of society "(Internet & Society Collaboraty: 2010)?. That quote illustrates the diversity that raises the issue of electronic public participation in the representative system. " The need of the population for more say in relation to public issues, is reflected currently in the Baden-Wuerttemberg protest "Stuttgart 21" again, to name just one example of the relevance of the topic. Electronic citizen participation could be both at local and national level, the opportunity to meet that need. This could lead to greater acceptance of each of the decisions taken by citizens, the local sense of belonging could also be strengthened and increased participation in decision-making could lead to any qualitative improvement. Nothing, despite the more, The following examples show the e-petition and e-consultation that takes place despite the lower participation effort, only a small civic participation. In the next section, these examples are presented, but first a brief comment follows the "classical" petition and consultation in order to classify the electronic equivalent of better.
consultations in the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG)
The word consultation is Latin and refers to the collection of information and advice from political decisions that a state make their own needs, but no legal right to co is granted. Consultations are available in the FRG in formal and informal in shape. Legally required participation procedures can be found mainly in urban development planning that will ensure that the public is given room for expression, said to have said as not binding.
petitions in Germany
petitions formulated in writing designate a command, complaint or a request to a government agency or parliament, enshrined since 1949 in Article 17 of the Basic Act as a fundamental right of every citizen. This is to ensure that every citizen, regardless of its status, the ability to has to be able to contribute his opinion in a political debate. A petition may be filed either by an individual as well as a group at the respective Petition Committee, the petitioner has no claim to the implementation of its concern.
e-consultation portal on the example of the civil law
The e-consultation, the Federal Ministry of the Interior tried to open a channel to channel criticism of the concept of de-mail. The e-consultation took place over 3.5 weeks, while the site was accessed almost 12,000 times and it was written 350 posts. Although there on the website good opportunities was to gain information on the Citizens Portal Act, such as the possible questions to write a review to download the bill or in a live chat with project director citizen portals, ask questions, participation was rather low. Sun led just about 70 reviews for real substantive changes in the civil law portal. But you have been observed here that this is likely acted to people who does have knowledge, but without the possibility of e-consultation is not perceived as such and would have so it does not change the law to obtain. The method allows the e-consultation, including experts who are not perceived as such, to achieve improvements in their knowledge. Even if the e-consultation has not received a great response, it has been achieved, the very people who wanted to reach them. However, found in an e-consultation no real exchange instead, because communication tends strongly in one direction. Thus, only the most common questions answered and included only those improvements that are consistent with the views of the legislature.
discussion
In the ensuing discussion, it is gone mainly to the possible impact of non-binding, which include the examples of electronic citizenship. influence, the question has been raised in this case includes, in particular, whether the citizens are held by the non-binding nature of their contributions from a participation contribute because they feel nothing and have to seriously. The opinion of the plenary is rather gone in the direction that the people who want to participate do so and are not held by the non-binding it.

How To Make A Report Card 5 Years Old
Electronic citizen participation in the representative system (Mean cooperation )
Claudia Lorenz, Susanne Vogt and Halina Klischat
Claudia Lorenz, Susanne Vogt and Halina Klischat
with electronic methods of citizen participation can decision-making processes more open and transparent. This can be increased for a project to the public the relevance and credibility. And the use of digital media easier enables citizens to participate in policy-making and increase efficiency on the part of the administration.
The following three examples of e-participation in the central co-presented, that citizens can make proposals and opinions, but politics is in its final decision not bound by it. For this opens up the possibility for policy to help the people a new information and knowledge base to generate. Viewed
redesign of the Hamburg Cathedral Square Cathedral Square Historically an important role for Hamburg. He is the geographical center of the city and it was assumed here a long time, the location of the Hamma Burg, Hamburg its name was. According to the different structural use, the area most recently served as a parking lot. In recent years there have been ideas and architectural competitions whose results have not been implemented. After 2005, the design of a glass building strong protest had the effect of the population, they decided on an Internet discussion, from 29.05. was carried out until 14.06.2007.
This one uses the DEMOS method which is based on a project funded by the European Commission for research and development project. Implemented by TuTech GmbH This process is a results-oriented discussion course edit and save any conflicts promptly. The motivation of potential participants is paramount. The discussion is divided into 3 phases: (1) development of the central topics of discussion, (2) enhance the discussion and development of problem-solving strategies, (3) consolidation of the debate - followed by presentation of the results in a final report .
In the introductory phase, users could "their cathedral square" shape with the help of a map and aerial images themselves. These designs could then be recovered from all users in the following comments and complements. Accompanying supervised a team of presenters and the discussions summarized the current results for a better view. Should provide for additional share live discussions with politicians and leaders of the planning authority. In addition, prominent Hamburg promoted the Internet discussion of a higher media presence to achieve.
was a result there are 27 concrete proposals and use the "desire for a tangible public and freely available ... loose and delicately built, or even completely undeveloped Cathedral Square. The 285 registered participants of the discussion were the largest Part between 30 and 64 years and had a higher level of education. Moreover, the urban districts were slightly above presented.
The redesigned Cathedral Square was opened in May 2007. The campaigns designs were not implemented directly, but only the desire for a clear and stressing the historical importance of this place. The cost of the renovation was around 1.2 million euros. Nevertheless, the current approach is only a temporary solution that should probably calm the highly charged debate over the use first.
Citizens Budget Cologne Using participatory budgeting are in financial planning knowledge and opinions of the citizens are used, this should create more transparency and promote citizen participation in political processes. Model for participatory budgeting in Germany, including the Citizens Budget Porto Alegre, there was carried out with the electoral victory of a leftist party in 1989 the citizen's first budget. 15% of citizens took part in election stakeholders (100,000 citizens). Anyone could take part in community meetings, which were used 10000-20000 citizens. At the town meetings and government administration presented their work before, citizens could make suggestions and comment. In Porto Alegre, improved infrastructure, and the number of illiterates, the nepotism and corruption reduced.
In Cologne 2007, the first participatory budgeting was done here was very much focused on the Internet. The Finance Committee of Cologne were the themes of "Sports", "green areas", "roads, streets and squares" free choice of topics based on a survey among the citizens of Cologne. On the Internet could develop suggestions, comments reviewed, (Support / Reject) be. At a call center in Cologne have also received proposals. At the beginning of the civil budget proposal went with a circular arches on all households in Cologne on which proposals could also be formulated. The proposals of the arches and received in Cologne, call centers were also posted on the Internet and were able to be commented on and evaluated. A total of 5,000 suggestions were received, 9,000 comments and 50,000 evaluations that rated 100 were presented to the Parliament, explained that his decision later on the internet. In particular, the infrastructure of Cologne has changed through the participatory budget (cycle lanes). Main part have involved men aged 35-55 years with a high level of education, therefore, participation is not representative.
participatory budgeting (Participatory budgeting) in the UK The participatory budget was the beginning of the millennium by Hazel Blears (former Secretary of State for civic and community affairs), a catchment. It features two characteristics. On the one hand he is between community development, whose goal is to transfer civil society organizations selbstdurchzuführende services and to settle public private partnerships. The second feature is the system of participatory budgeting, as evidenced by traditional methods, eg composed Consultative forums, interactive web sites, citizen juries (Plan cells): Question and answer sessions in the Council and of modern methods, for example.
An example is the "Vote For Your Park" campaign in London in 2008 where citizens could vote for one of the 47 parks to choose from on the Internet, by SMS or mail. The aim of the vote, the distribution of public funds (£ 400,000) for the beautification of the parks with the most votes. First, it is positive assess that the citizens would be able to participate in the use of public funds. But you have to narrow down the back, because the way the pure vote, does not generate discussion among the citizens. Multiple Voting Voting distorted a fair result, the danger that Parks 'win' in a socially more districts is quite high. This can lead to spatial disparities.
Another example is the Citizens Panel be consulted on the regular 500 to 2500 a representative sample of citizens, in a period of 3 to 4 years on specific topics. The goal of a citizen panel is the generation of views among the broadest possible citizenship. The surveyed citizens should also be involved in more deliberative participation process. There is an opportunity, for people who deal regularly with
certain problems in their region and are asked to show a greater willingness to participate in this area for further action (eg: workshops, citizen jury, etc.). In e-panels such as "YouGov" registered user being interviewed via the Internet by the same research institute. Commissioned the survey to come out of politics or for market and social research.
future
In June 2010 the database was "Coins-Combined Online Information System found online. Using this database, it is possible to every citizen in the UK to see the government spending, one can determine to whom or for which funds flow projects. Now methods must be found to process this information and possibly develop new efficient methods for participatory budgeting. Furthermore, 2012 will be introduced in each community the participatory budgeting.

Invitation Card Hindi Matter
and system question
comment on article revelations and Ethics Wikileaks and the systemic question of 12/11/2010, by Hans Leyendecker.
The question "What message are reports prove to whom?" should not be made by the SZ, but are determined according to the present by Wikileaks information!
should go the "traditional" media about finding a position between between "embedded journalism" and Wikileaks, which is more than just feuilletonistic reasoning about generational conflicts.
In this context, the introduction of the article "Wikileaks and the system question "a little irritating. The speculation that the second Iraq war would be broken if the" informational Vandals "by Wikileaks would have struck even then leads, in view of the fact that the UN Security Council has been lied to justify the United States, in the void . The "truth", with or without Wikileaks, Collin Powell, with a cheap Photoshop fiction of mobile weapons of mass destruction delivered it himself.
is important is the fact that at that time the voices of millions of citizens who were protesting in the streets all over the world, however, , were simply ignored. In the economy of the opinion media were used as "image" of a democratic process that but simply never took place. It is almost a point, why Wikileaks is now more than necessary.
should really join the SZ so those newspapers that reflect Wikileaks site and every day to provide a thorough analysis of the leaked information and put it in current Zusammenhäge, instead of complaining that Wikileaks just does not (can not do).
to the point the system question is: What can
the "traditional media" from the mirror-judgment of 5 August 1966 and the Judgement of 27 Cicero- February 2007 to really get to the 4th to form pillar of democracy?

How Long Does It Take For Sypilis To Show
The right game at the wrong game: Wikileaks help!
Here is an interesting Article I take the liberty of copying LawBlog Udo Vetter. ;-) I hope this is clear, but the review provides some clarity on the question of whether one may now help Wikileaks or not. It is the nature of the case that all attempts to criminalize not only Wikileaks, but also those who want to support Wikileaks. The question of whether we like it because it was importance to freedom of press, freedom of expression puts an open question. Here is the link to LawBlog

A free server space, not guided by the public authority, subjected to censorship press is an essential element of a free State, in particular, is a free, regularly published political press for modern democracy is indispensable. Should citizens make political decisions, he must be fully informed, but also know the opinions and can weigh up to today, the others have formed. The press keeps this constant discussion going, they obtained the information himself takes this position and thus acts as an orienting force in the public debate. In it is articulated public opinion.
Federal Constitutional Court, Judgement of 5 mirror August 1966 Link
The above four sets are now 44 years old. However, they actually contain all the answers to the questions facing us Germans in the WikiLeaks debate.
A question would be, for example, that German politicians, despite the steep templates from the U.S. are remarkably restrained in it, the editors of the Mirror, which further put the U.S. diplomat end Peschen the German public, to move into the vicinity of cyber-terrorism or treason.
Simply because they know that anyone who tried again to Franz-Josef Strauss, has taken a bloody nose. Recent those were the investigators, which felts the Cicero-editing, because they arrive in the trail of a mole in the Federal wanted. Aid to the mystery of the betrayal was accused Cicero journalists. An evil construct simply because disclosure of secrets can commit only a civil servant. This has the Federal Constitutional Court then dissected in a new decision in principle on press freedom very painful for those responsible.
The judges made clear that searches and seizures by the press members are not permitted if they are exclusively or primarily the purpose to determine the identity of the informant (Cicero, Judgement of 27 February 2007). Link
These are milestones.
But beyond that found from the Spiegel Affair to Cicero in all decisions of the Federal Constitutional Court on a clear message that the press should just rely on the information that superficially adheres to the stigma of illegal immigrants. There are simply not reporting ban on leaked documents from government ministries, political groups, intelligence services and police authorities, these may be two or three times as "confidentially" or even "secret" stamped.
are decisions of the Federal Constitutional Court has clearly read that the press of their role as 4th Violence in general is just only if they abnudelt not only press releases from politics, administration and courts. No, they can and should connect to other authorities on their feet by just information leakage used to bring the uncomfortable things to light. For the first meets the press the claim of the citizen to "full information", through the true state of the society in which he lives. Press freedom also includes the entire value chain. Informants and protection of sources are therefore no phrases from spy movies, but solid legal reality.
Thus, no one put away as the editors of the Mirror for their "revelations", so little you could do it with the makers in Germany by WikiLeaks.
The only uncertainty was whether WikiLeaks really "press" is. It is for me but no doubt. Although limited the activity of the documentation on WikiLeaks. But just the documentation is a core function of journalism. Moreover, times are changing. The Internet now allows even bought a brand new journalism by facts. Because there are different from print media no limits on the amount of information and no limitation of the public. WikiLeaks has grasped the first, it reacted brilliantly and so probably the world's currently most talked about and made probably the most important medium of all.
The policy response speaks for itself anyway.
The country of origin of the message dispatches, is stupid enough in itself, nor haven of almost unlimited freedom of expression. But rather then to be proud to take matters to keep fit and perhaps in secret to grind their teeth, demanding U.S. politicians and even newspaper journalists disclosed the death of the Front Runners Julian Assange, the classification of WikiLeaks as a terrorist organization and a law shortly Whistleblowing times each, to the detriment of the United States is under severe penalties. Moreover
should have led the first government pressure to dry out that private companies such as Amazon, PayPal, Mastercard and Visa now WikiLeaks remove the space and financial channels. Which is probably due to the remaining national freedom not a U.S. court would have approved is so on the terms and conditions implemented by companies. This not even seriously laminated Foul Play is likely to cost the U.S. in the long term probably more sympathetic than they already were losing by not more unstoppable message dispatches ever.
If it still goes merrily on, could maybe even meet dramatic visions. For example, those that WikiLeaks could be the trigger of a war that is fought on the battlefield Internet. On one side of the front of governments and companies that want to reverse the loss of control over the Internet. On the other hand their own citizens who can not like this and in turn take up arms - keyboard, technology understanding, Data lines and space. The call to make
WikiLeaks, the page on as many computers simultaneously available could be the first real mobilization of the non-governmental side of this conflict go down in history. The question of the risks of foot soldiers in this case to answer in my view, quite simple. There are no significant, if you can live with that, maybe more to get a visa for the USA.
is some places, yes even whispered, who helps WikiLeaks could possibly make a criminal offense, because he reveals state secrets, or even committing treason. This is where once again looking back. The Spiegel quoted in its historical title of "affective ready for defense "of internal government documents. Although the judges discussed the possibility to render the external security of the Federal Republic was threatened, but even they saw no purpose in Rudolf Augstein and his editors in the direction of a treason.
It should also be in the WikiLeaks documents. It is the parties give priority to the detection of irregularities and (unknown) political mechanisms, not about the security of the state to inflict a severe disadvantage. Where else to say this is that the thrust of the relevant penal provisions to acts detrimental to Germany's. The U.S. and France are at most about the international applicability of German criminal law included. But it requires some legal acrobatics. Cicero would approve.
A state secret is only as long as a state secret, as it is secret. Previously published information are therefore no longer a secret. It also raises the question whether someone who provides the server space available, the content of a user does at all its own and personally liable. Under German law is one of accommodation of other data provider. As such, it adheres the first place, nor for the content of his "clients" as the commercial provider, in which the server is rented.
In this context, may be quite the hat to those German providers prefer to not walk the way from Amazon, Paypal, Mastercard and Visa. Many providers are now expressly stated that they will not cancel, therefore the customer contract because support this WikiLeaks. Those who
be damaged by hail, the provider itself would not privilege, should his "guest" give free rein as possible on the server. Conversely, those who independently decide what content should take the "guest" on the server makes through testing and release its contents. This leads quickly according to their own liability.
uncertainty remains as yet the copyright. At least for the non-affected Audience, it would of course be an attractive idea that Hillary Clinton at the regional court of Hamburg says. It should, however, significant setbacks for the U.S. administration will be necessary before it embarks on this smooth terrain. Slippery because documents are protected by copyright authorities in the U.S. and Germany, much less, say, the script for the television series "24".
This is not a call to go to war. But no warning before it.
Here is an interesting Article I take the liberty of copying LawBlog Udo Vetter. ;-) I hope this is clear, but the review provides some clarity on the question of whether one may now help Wikileaks or not. It is the nature of the case that all attempts to criminalize not only Wikileaks, but also those who want to support Wikileaks. The question of whether we like it because it was importance to freedom of press, freedom of expression puts an open question. Here is the link to LawBlog

summary of the seminar paper: Transparency II
Abgeordnetenwatch.de - Because transparency creates trust
Under the motto "citizen questions - answer politician" was created in 2004 in the wake of the referendum on a new electoral law for the Hamburg abgeordnetenwatch.de first volunteer initiative. The aim was to overcome with the aid of a conversational interface attributes the gap between voters and elected representatives. All 121 deputies citizenship were listed with the most important information on their person, a photo and a contact address.
wake of its success, the platform 2006 to the Bundestag and 2008 extended to the European Parliament. Even local politicians from the district meetings in seven districts may be asked online. In addition to the vote and information about the outside activities and income of members of parliament can be done in abgeordnetenwatch.de one thing: ask questions. It is
abgeordnetenwatch.de a registered non-partisan association and institutionally independent. The public dialogue is to promote and ensure that political decisions are made transparent. Politicians should be closer to the citizens and their problems and needs. Virtually abgeordnetenwatch.de
works as follows: Each member has or Candidates a profile page. The questioner is his name and his e-mail address and asks its question. A team of presenters examined the question using a moderation of conduct drawn up by the Trustees, and unlock it. The questions and answers are then publicly for all to see. The questions will be forwarded directly to the deputies.
The Board of Trustees, which consists of eleven members include the moment in Dr. Jürgen Kühling, twelve years Judge of the Federal Constitutional Court, Prof. Dr. Hans J. Kleinsteuber, a professor of political science and journalism at the University of Hamburg, and Dr. Manfred Brandt, member of the Hamburg State Board of More Democracy to. The Board of Trustees established Moderation Code prohibits in particular the activation of contributions, in which racist, sexist, abusive, inhumane or private questions.
The platform uses a mixed funding. First, it draws its funds from donations and funding contributions from Parlamentwatch.de, own support groups, online advertising and a project cost-sharing of candidates. The non-profit partner Bonventure GmbH provides the necessary risk capital.
Who responds and how to respond?
Looking at the response of various Members are clear differences visible. Where a Be very detailed and comprehensive answers and hide behind other Members to delegate them to standard formulations or colleagues asked questions. In the "signature" they are different: in some cases, the name used is the deputies, in another sign the "team". In general, one can assume that the members write their answers themselves. The Federal Chancellor Angela Merkel
not used at all abgeordnetenwatch.de. It has its own platform - direktzurkanzlerin.de.
Direkzu
The direktzu GmbH was founded in late 2006 by students at the FU Berlin. Meanwhile, there is a 20-member Team behind this company. It is supported financially by the European Union, the Free University of Berlin and the Brandenburg University. It is unclear how much money the company occupies itself and demands for their services. On the home page of the website will be asked to ask about the 'special pricing options for policy makers and civil society. " According to information provided direktzu
is a "provider of software-based solutions that provide by modern many-to-one communications for efficiency and relevance in direct exchange between large groups and exposed addressees. There are two types of communication software: direktzu corporate (direktzu Intern), which is designed for companies and should make for more efficient communication between employees and management, and direktzu politics (direktzu external) which aims at a better citizen and crisis communications, and customer feedback platforms.
Direktzu politics is mostly used by individual politicians. So far, the Angela Merkel, Ilse Aigner, Dirk Niebel, Matthias Platzeck, Wolfgang Böhmer, Holger Rupprecht, Harald Wolf, Markus Lewe, Jürgen Nimptsch and Christian Ude. The presence of Norbert Lammert and Horst Seehofer was adjusted because of "low demand" or "at the request of the Bavarian State Chancellery, for strategic reasons."
Since 22.9.2010 there is also the project page dirketzustuttgart21.de "there is communication on what not to individual politicians, but with the project partners. This is an example of crisis communication.
direktzu The softwares are also in English (straightto) and was used in the last election campaign in the USA.
The press has largely taken a positive stance on direktzu. So many terms like "Internet democracy", "digital populism" or "promotion of social communication." However, there is the accusation that it was at the side only a "complaints mailbox", but this does nothing.
Dirketzurkanzlerin.de
This site was founded in October 2006. It is very simple. Asker can register and post a message as text, with audio or video. Voting on the contributions and rated three are sent once a week to respond to the Government Press Office. The answers are (especially compared to some examples on abgeordnetenwatch.de) in some detail and will specifically address the issue. The questions and answers to the public and can be filtered by various criteria.
Direktzurkanzlerin.de has been relatively successful and had been in the first week 30,000 visits.
A look to the UK: mysociety.org
Mysociety.org is an example of various e-democracy projects there since 2003. On the homepage of many of their own projects will be seeking for all citizens to improve and simplify everyday life.
examples include the home pages They Work For You, which provides information on members, and Fix My Street, on the citizens pictures of broken roads, etc. can upload lanterns which are then forwarded to local officials.
Write to Them
Write to Them follows a very simple Principle: The citizens can enter their zip code and then see which representative represents. You can write a message that is forwarded to them. Thus, a personal contact between citizens and representative can be produced. The questions and answers are not published.
Hear From Your MP
In Hear From Your MP to the citizens by name, e-mail login address and ZIP code. If enough people register in his constituency, the MP receives a message informing you how many people are interested in his work. Can the MP to one, everyone gets notified Citizens of a newsletter by the MP to the current issues. Directly in this newsletter there is a link, so that citizens can respond. It is built up a kind of blog-on principle: the MP writes a statement, the subscriber can comment on it and it may give a call. This offer is used by nearly 137 000 British.
The problem with this is that many MPs do not participate. Many of them prefer soft on e-mails and Twitter services.
Abgeordnetenwatch.de, and direktzurkanzlerin Write to Them - A brief comparison
It has become clear that all three offers a better and easier communication between citizens and politicians want to establish. The former should participate more and get the latter a better look of what the people really interested. However, there are some differences:
Abgeordnetenwatch.de sees itself as a platform of "collective memory of voters." Where a question to the moderation of conduct, it is forwarded directly to the deputies. All question and (non) answers will be published. In
direktzurkanzlerin it looks different. There are only three issues a week forwarded to the Federal Press Office. These three questions are then the ones of interest to the majority of users. Issues with smaller concerns are therefore not to direktzurkanzlerin answered.
Write to Them follows a completely different principle than the other two platforms: This is not the goal, a large database of questions and answers to build, but the questions are not published. Write to Them acts more as a mediator between citizen and representative, by producing a personal e-mail.

The presence of Norbert Lammert and Horst Seehofer was adjusted because of "low demand" or "at the request of the Bavarian State Chancellery, for strategic reasons."
Since 22.9.2010 there is also the project page dirketzustuttgart21.de "there is communication on what not to individual politicians, but with the project partners. This is an example of crisis communication.
direktzu The softwares are also in English (straightto) and was used in the last election campaign in the USA.
The press has largely taken a positive stance on direktzu. So many terms like "Internet democracy", "digital populism" or "promotion of social communication." However, there is the accusation that it was at the side only a "complaints mailbox", but this does nothing.
Dirketzurkanzlerin.de
This site was founded in October 2006. It is very simple. Asker can register and post a message as text, with audio or video. Voting on the contributions and rated three are sent once a week to respond to the Government Press Office. The answers are (especially compared to some examples on abgeordnetenwatch.de) in some detail and will specifically address the issue. The questions and answers to the public and can be filtered by various criteria.
Direktzurkanzlerin.de has been relatively successful and had been in the first week 30,000 visits.
A look to the UK: mysociety.org
Mysociety.org is an example of various e-democracy projects there since 2003. On the homepage of many of their own projects will be seeking for all citizens to improve and simplify everyday life.
examples include the home pages They Work For You, which provides information on members, and Fix My Street, on the citizens pictures of broken roads, etc. can upload lanterns which are then forwarded to local officials.
Write to Them
Write to Them follows a very simple Principle: The citizens can enter their zip code and then see which representative represents. You can write a message that is forwarded to them. Thus, a personal contact between citizens and representative can be produced. The questions and answers are not published.
Hear From Your MP
In Hear From Your MP to the citizens by name, e-mail login address and ZIP code. If enough people register in his constituency, the MP receives a message informing you how many people are interested in his work. Can the MP to one, everyone gets notified Citizens of a newsletter by the MP to the current issues. Directly in this newsletter there is a link, so that citizens can respond. It is built up a kind of blog-on principle: the MP writes a statement, the subscriber can comment on it and it may give a call. This offer is used by nearly 137 000 British.
The problem with this is that many MPs do not participate. Many of them prefer soft on e-mails and Twitter services.
Abgeordnetenwatch.de, and direktzurkanzlerin Write to Them - A brief comparison
It has become clear that all three offers a better and easier communication between citizens and politicians want to establish. The former should participate more and get the latter a better look of what the people really interested. However, there are some differences:
Abgeordnetenwatch.de sees itself as a platform of "collective memory of voters." Where a question to the moderation of conduct, it is forwarded directly to the deputies. All question and (non) answers will be published. In
direktzurkanzlerin it looks different. There are only three issues a week forwarded to the Federal Press Office. These three questions are then the ones of interest to the majority of users. Issues with smaller concerns are therefore not to direktzurkanzlerin answered.
Write to Them follows a completely different principle than the other two platforms: This is not the goal, a large database of questions and answers to build, but the questions are not published. Write to Them acts more as a mediator between citizen and representative, by producing a personal e-mail.
