Abstract
In the context of Russia's digital transformation, the systemic digitalization of the dialogue between the public and the authorities is gaining particular relevance. The dialogue involves dealing with various problems of digital inequality, which include not only access to information and individual user skills but also ensuring simple process of getting the required amount of information about the local authorities’ activity. The role of the authorities here is providing the “digital information openness”, i.e. reporting to the local community about their work, receiving feedback from the residents and involving them in the informational dialogue. Authorities’ digital information openness will help to make them approachable for people and achieve “two-way” communication with the public. This will keep the government bodies well informed about the real socio-political situation in the region and guarantee the public’s involvement in the process of making decisions on development of the region and municipalities. The article analyzes web resources of government agencies and social network accounts of highest officials in eight RF constituent territories with various levels of economic development. The analysis shows that one of the key factors of supporting the dialogue between authorities and the public and developing digital information openness is federal and local legislative regulation.
