基于文本挖掘的政府公共价值测度与比较

The measurement and comparison of text-mining-based government public value

公共价值应当是公共管理和公共政策最为核心的概念之一,但由于这一概念的哲学性和模糊性,目前理论界对它的理解与研究主要以思辨性探讨为主,实证研究较为缺乏。公共价值是人们的一种主观认知,政府工作报告作为政府各项工作及其公共政策的集中体现,其中包含了大量公共价值。运用文本挖掘技术,选取2000-2013年国务院与广东省政府工作报告作为研究对象,分析报告中的公共价值关键词的特征及规律,论证Jorgensen和Bozeman所提出的公共价值的多元化、差异性及阶梯性。

Public value is supposed to be one of the core concepts in public administration and public policy. However, due to the philosophical nature and ambiguity of public value, the research on it has often been theo- retic rather than empirical. Public value is people＇ s subjective cognition ; government work report, as the con- centrated reflection of all items of governement＇ s work and public policies, contains a large amount of public val- ue. This paper, by adopting thetechnique of text - mining, studies the government work reports of Central Gov- ernment and Guangdong provincial government from 2000 to 2013, analyzes the features and laws of key words of the public value in the reports, and demonstrates the pluralism, differentiation and laddering nature of public value proposed in Jorgensen and Bozeman＇s theory.
