Black and Smelly Waters: how citizen-generated transparency is addressing gaps in China’s environmental management

ABSTRACT

Information communication technologies (ICTs) generate new forums for transparency via governance-by-disclosure initiatives designed to improve environmental management and policy. Data generated by these programs are a means to empower citizens, narrowing the accountability gap between governments and people and enhancing public service. There is little empirical evidence, however, that supports the theory that citizen-generated data can be used to improve the accountability of local government officials. Citizen-led transparency efforts are emerging in China, as the country undergoes an information revolution that has brought ICTs to near ubiquity. We evaluate the transformative potential of a new ICT initiative, the ‘Black and Smelly Waters’ program, which China’s government launched to help enforce local government water remediation efforts. Many examples of citizen-generated transparency are grassroots initiatives, yet the Black and Smelly Waters program is distinct in its top-down structure. An empirical evaluation of preliminary data illuminates Black and Smelly Waters’s early successes and challenges as a means to generate transparency and accountability. We discuss these findings and propose a broad application of this new type of disclosure to reshape environmental management in China.     

论中国城市灾害科学的现状研究及新构想

城市是一个国家和地区的经济、政治、文化中心,是一个综合了社会、心理、地理、工程、功能、生态等学科在内的复杂系统工程,是人双重属性(自然与社会)的一个载体。面对现状及21世纪我国城市建设的挑战,本文认为不仅应研究优美的景观、平衡的生态、高效的功能及无障碍特性,还必须提高一个现代化城市抗御灾害的综合能力。“国际减灾十年”全球统一行动应同环境治理一样,成为衡量城市现代化的标志。
