Abstract

Public Administration incorporates the development of statutes and regulations to bring order and control to aspects of society. In democratic societies this is accompanied by gathering opinion from the population on the span and degree of this control and on some of the details. This essay explores ways in which developments in digital technologies can facilitate this process, aid policymakers in ensuring consistency of regulations, and streamline the process between regulation and software in situations where this is relevant and helpful. It looks forward to what the coming generation of citizens might expect from their public administrators.
