Descrizione Commenti dei lettori

The article focuses on the culture of communication in the public sector, aiming to understand its features and transformations facing the challenge of digital media. In the first part, a view of the international literature on communication in the public sector is presented. The strategic role played by communication in the public organizations is underlined as well as the institutionalization of social media in the management of communication with citizens and media. In the second part, a qualitative explorative research is illustrated. The study was conducted in Italy and France and consisted of 10 in-depth interviews with key figures in public sector communication: academics and professionals of national associations. The study aimed to present the main similarities and differences between the two countries about three thematic macro-areas: the state of the art of conceptualization of public sector communication highlighting the tension between apolitical and political dimensions; the role of communication professionals in public organizations; the impact of social media on the communication activities. The results demonstrate that in contemporary media ecosystem public sector organizations need to continue the process of innovation of their bureaucratic apparatus, to acquire new skills in a multi-channel perspective and to encourage a less asymmetrical relationship with citizens.
