RETRACTED: Research on Citizen Participation in the Implementation of Public Policy in Big Data Age※

Abstract The advent of the big data age provides an effective tool for citizens who can better participate in the implementation of public policies. Citizens’ participation in the process of public policy implementation is conducive to the better realization of the objectives of the subjects of public policy implementation, to the implementation of the “bottom-up” public policy model, to the maximization of public interest and to the citizens’ needs to adapt to public policies. However, the enthusiasm and degree of citizen’s participation in the implementation of public policy are relatively low, because of some subjective and objective constraints in the process. We should cultivate citizens’ ability and consciousness to participate in public policies, establish a two-way interactive mechanism between the government and citizens, and strengthen the information disclosure in the process of public policy implementation.
