Public Innovation and Digital Transformation
Public innovation and digitalization are reshaping organizations and society in various ways and within multiple fields, as innovations are essential in transforming our world and addressing global sustainability and development challenges.This book addresses the fascinating relationship of these two contemporary topics and explores the role of digital transformation in promoting public innovation. This edited collection includes examples of innovations that emerge suddenly, practices for processing innovations, and the requirements for transformation from innovation to the "new normal".Acknowledging that public innovation refers to the development and realization of new and creative ideas that challenge conventional wisdom and disrupt the established practices within a specific context, expert contributions from international scholars explore and illustrate the various activities that are happening in the world of multiple digitalization opportunities.The content covers public administration, technical and business management, human, social, and future sciences, paying attention to the interaction between public and private sectors to utilize digitalization in order to facilitate public innovation. This timely book will be of interest to researchers, academics and students in the fields of technology and innovation management, as well as knowledge management, public service management and administration.

Public Sector Innovation
Governments around the world are under pressure to do more with less.Dispelling the conventional wisdom that government is the enemy of innovation, this book argues that the promise of innovation addressing the most compelling societal problems will only come to fruition if governments become full partners and participants in innovation.The authors provide a systematic overview, analysis, framework, research agenda, and strategic directions for the study of public sector innovation, examining drivers, sources, barriers, typologies, and outcomes of innovation along with ethics.They suggest that innovation in government requires a new approach to public sector strategy, organization, human resources, and culture.Featuring large data analyses and poignant case studies drawn from best practices across the globe, Demircioglu and Audretsch identify what works and what doesn't in transforming governments from the periphery to the very heart of the most profound innovations driving societal change and development.

Routledge Handbook of Public Communication of Science and Technology
Communicating science and technology is a high priority of many research and policy institutions, a concern of many other private and public bodies, and an established subject of training and education.In the past few decades, the field has developed and expanded significantly, both in terms of professional practice, and in terms of research and reflection.At the same time, particularly in recent years, interactions between science and society have become a topic of heated public and political debates, touching issues like quality and credibility of information, trust in science and scientific actors and institutions and the roles of experts in crises and emergencies.This book provides a state-of-the-art review of this fast-growing and increasingly important area, through an examination of research done on the main actors, issues and arenas involved. The third edition of the Handbook brings the reviews up-to-date and deepens the analysis.As well as substantial re-working of many chapters, it includes four new chapters addressing enduring themes (science publics, science-media theories), recent trends (art-science interactions) and new proposed insights on science communication as culture and as 'the social conversation around science'.New contributors are added to the group of leading scholars in the field featured in the previous editions. The Handbook is a student-friendly resource, but its scope and expert contributions will equally appeal to practitioners and professionals in science communication.Combining the perspectives of different disciplines and of different geographical and cultural contexts, this original text provides an interdisciplinary as well as a global approach to public communication of science and technology.It is a valuable resource, notably an indispensable guide to the published work in the field, for students, researchers, educators and professionals in science communication, media and journalism studies, sociology, history of science, and science and technology studies. Chapter 8 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

What is a public network?
A public network is a type of network that is open and accessible to the general public. It allows users to connect to the internet or other services without any restrictions or limitations. Public networks are often found in places like cafes, airports, and libraries, where multiple users can connect their devices to the network. However, using a public network can pose security risks as the data transmitted over the network can be intercepted by malicious actors.

Can data transfer in a public Wi-Fi network in the hospital be traced?
Yes, data transfer in a public Wi-Fi network in a hospital can be traced. Public Wi-Fi networks are generally less secure than private networks, making it easier for hackers or network administrators to monitor and trace data transfers. Hospitals may have security measures in place to protect patient information, but it is still possible for someone with the right tools and knowledge to intercept and trace data on a public Wi-Fi network. It is always recommended to use a virtual private network (VPN) when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks to ensure your data remains secure and private.

Legitimacy Politics : Elite Communication and Public Opinion in Global Governance
Once staunch advocates of international cooperation, political elites are increasingly divided over the merits of global governance.Populist leaders attack international organizations for undermining national democracy, while mainstream politicians defend their importance for solving transboundary problems.Bridging international relations, comparative politics, and cognitive psychology, Lisa Dellmuth and Jonas Tallberg explore whether, when, and why elite communication shapes the popular legitimacy of international organizations.Based on novel theory, experimental methods, and comparative evidence, they show that elites are influential in shaping how citizens perceive global governance and explain why some elites and messages are more effective than others.The book offers fresh insights into major issues of our day, such as the rise of populism, the power of communication, the backlash against global governance, and the relationship between citizens and elites.It will be of interest to scholars and students of international organisations, and experimental and survey research methods.

Is the internet a public good?
The internet can be considered a public good in some aspects. It provides access to information, communication, and resources that can benefit society as a whole. However, the internet is not universally accessible to everyone, and there are digital divides that limit its availability to certain populations. Additionally, the internet is often controlled by private entities and governments, which can restrict access and limit its public good potential. Overall, while the internet has the potential to be a public good, its accessibility and control issues make it a complex and nuanced topic.
