The main purpose of empirical research is proving that, despite all the talk of politicians who bow to public communication online for closer and interactivity with citizens, this does not happen in practice. The Internet user is treated as a taxpayer and not as a citizen. The empirical research studied the public portal of the Federal Government, the Chamber of Deputies, the Government of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and the Legislative Assemblies. However, the empirical analysis is a specific moment in the research, which in fact occurs as demand tematize social participation, which is based on models of democracy: liberal, participatory and deliberative; it will be examinated the ways in which these models deal the public participation in things of the state. The epistemological proposal of this work aims to contribute to the development of critical studies on communication, specifically online communication. It examines the wrong use of the Internet that are turning online communication in a new avatar of the metamorphosis of the system of inequality and exclusion from the study of some aspects of the revolution made of information technology in various regions of the world. It examines also the effects of computerization and virtualization generalized processes and social relations, individuals, businesses, institutions and states, in short, a process of ciberacultureness widespread, a condition that tends to aggravate the existing pattern of social injustice, producing more inequality and exclusion an area that drew anarchic and democratic. The stratifications are already happens in these fields, establishing a new hierarchy: perverse and oppressive. It points out as the main responsible for this new social order to " estrutural recycle", the very ciberdemocracy global capitalism, which requires of each one, states or individuals, the constant recycling and cognitive growth, in a pace increasingly accelerated. This situation has caused peculiar feelings : confusion, disorientation and perplexity. This new form of colonialism and exclusion is unprecedented in actuality, in the viewing of authors such as Boaventura de Souza, Eugênio Trivinho and Zygmunt Bauman, main theoretic used in this analysis / Esta pesquisa investiga a competência dos Poderes Legislativo e Executivo no uso das tecnologias de informação, particularmente da Internet, avaliando a qualidade dos portais oficiais, com relação a navegabilidade, informações governamentais, serviços, controle público, participação e interatividade. A principal finalidade da pesquisa empírica é provar que, apesar da fala dos agentes políticos que reverenciam a comunicação pública on line para maior proximidade e interatividade com os cidadãos, isso não ocorre na prática. O internauta é tratado como um contribuinte e não como cidadão. A pesquisa empírica estudou os portais públicos do Governo Federal, da Câmara dos Deputados, dos Governos de São Paulo e Rio de Janeiro e respectivas Assembléias Legislativas, procurando tematizar como se dá a participação social, que é baseada nos modelos de democracia: liberal, participativo e deliberativo; examina-se a maneira pela qual estes modelos tratam a participação pública nas coisas do Estado. A proposta epistemológica deste trabalho busca contribuir para o desenvolvimento de estudos críticos sobre comunicação on line. Para tanto, analisam-se desvirtuamentos do uso da Internet que vêm tornando a comunicação on line em avatar de uma nova metamorfose do sistema de desigualdade e do sistema de exclusão, a partir dos estudos de alguns aspectos de como se deu a revolução da tecnologia da informação em diversas regiões do mundo. Tematizam-se ainda os efeitos da informatização e virtualização generalizadas dos processos e relações sociais, atingindo indivíduos, empresas, instituições e Estados, caracterizando um processo de ciberaculturação generalizada, condição que tende a agravar o padrão de injustiça social vigente, produzindo mais desigualdade e exclusão num espaço que se desenhava anárquico e democrático. As estratificações já ocorrem neste espaço, estabelecendo uma nova hierarquia, perversa e sufocante. Aponta-se como principal responsável por esta nova ordem social a reciclagem estrutural , própria do capitalismo ciberdromocrático global, que exige de cada um, Estados ou indivíduos, o constante reciclar cognitivo e econômico, num ritmo cada vez mais acelerado. Essa situação tem provocado sentimentos peculiares: de confusão, desorientação e perplexidade. Uma nova forma de colonialismo e de exclusão sem precedentes ocorre na atualidade, na visão de autores como Boaventura de Souza Santos, Eugênio Trivinho e Zygmunt Bauman, principais teóricos utilizados nesta análise

自一九八Ｏ年代起，現代資訊與通訊科技(Information and Communication Technology or ICT)、電腦中介傳播(Computer-Mediated Communication or CMC)、網際網路(Internet)及全球資訊網(World Wide Web or WWW)的發展和普及化，已被學者、政治人物、以及論者們認為是可用以加強實踐公民參與及民主政治之有效工具。本研究即探討政府如何透過網際網路來提供公民參與機制。 本研究以網際網路之公民參與機制的理論為基礎，建構一個完整的網際網路之公民參與機制，亦即建構一個理想的網路公共論壇版面。並檢視台北市政府於全球資訊網網站上之公共論壇版面的運作現況及其成效，檢驗其中公民參與公共事務價值的實踐程度。最後，將探討網際網路之公民參與機制的實踐會有哪些侷限，應如何加以突破，藉此提供學術界及實務界研究貢獻。 / Since the 1980's, many scholars, statesmen, and researchers have come to realize that the development and popularity of modern Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Computer-mediated Communication (CMC), Internet, and the World Wide Web (WWW) will become the effective mechanism for citizen participation. The main purpose of this research paper is to study how government provides citizen participation through Internet. First, the paper will take the theory of Internet citizen participation to construct an ideal mechanism of Internet citizen participation, i.e., to build an ideal operational procedural of Internet Public Forum. Second, the paper will use Taipei City Government's "Citizen Forum" in the World Wide Web as a case study to compare and analyze this case with the ideal operational procedural of Internet Public Forum. Last, the paper will discuss the constraints of Internet citizen participation, and search for solutions to these constraints.

The diploma thesis examines new phenomena of electronic democracy which is becoming more popular with the internet expansion. The thesis summarizes existing research in the field of electronic democracy from a view of forms that could be or are taken. The aim of this summarization is to show that new transformational changes affecting our society do not automatically implicate a shift towards direct democracy. Using theoretical summarization a state of the art of electronic democracy in the Czech Republic is described. Importance is given to an analysis of contemporary evolving tools and initiatives which were developed from two directions - top-down and a bottom up. A part of this analysis is an assessment of important factors that are stimulating a development of electronic participation - freedom of information right, internet penetration and computer literacy.
