Summary

Chapter 3 develops a typology of varieties of participatory technologies. It argues that participatory technologies vary along three key dimensions: informational output, individualization, and personalization, and that this variation influences the relative benefits and costs for authorities. The chapter then identifies and details three main types of participatory technologies – appeals systems, public consultations, and call-in shows – illustrating each of these ideal types through cases in Russia and around the world.
