网络问政的开启及对问政者的角色考验

网络问政是公共行政主体通过网络途径就政务情况向民众征询意见的活动过程。问政的便利性、参与的广泛性和交流的平等性是网络问政的特点和优势。网络问政是广大网民参与公共行政事务讨论和表达自身权利诉求的有效方式,网络问政的开启和正常运行对于实现科学决策、降低行政成本和处理好突发事件都具有十分重要的意义。在网络问政中,问政者不但是网络问政的开启者,而且是网络信息的接受者、网络舆情的主导者和政务工作的被监督者。信息处理判断复杂性、舆情整合手段单一性和政务工作监督严格性是问政者在问政活动中面临的主要考验。问政者要以开放的心态积极应对角色考验,应对的核心是提高自身素质,应对主要通过夯实动力基础、知识基础、能力基础和工作基础等途径进行。
