摘要 本文描述了联邦政府资助的一项倡议所面临的挑战，该倡议旨在促进在线审议，以改善美国联邦和州政府机构的公众意见流程。这个为期三年的项目遇到了一些困难。有些是技术性的，但我们的主要障碍是与政府机构建立合作伙伴关系。由于体制、法律和组织方面的挑战，许多政府机构抵制向审议结构开放公众意见征询流程，尽管奥巴马政府的开放政府倡议后发生了一些变化。本文描述了原始研究项目的目标，并详细介绍了所面临的挑战，希望能够指导未来与美国联邦机构合作的审议研究项目。
ABSTRACT This article describes the challenges facing a federal government–funded initiative to promote online deliberation to improve the public comment process by federal and state government agencies in the United States. The three year project met several difficulties. Some have been technical, but our primary obstacle has been in securing partnerships with government agencies. Due to institutional, legal, and organizational challenges, many government agencies are resistant to opening up the public comment process to a deliberative structure, although some change occurred following the Obama administration's Open Government Initiative. This article describes the objectives of the original research project and details the challenges faced with the hope of guiding future deliberation research projects that aim to work with federal agencies in the U.S.
