In the digital transformation, trust is animportant currency

A worthwhile comparison with Asia

A look at Asia shows that when citizens are guided through digital transformation while government service platforms are available to them, the foundation for the „smart” state is laid. Hence oneprerequisite for digital innovation is trust in the state and an administration that is digitally literate. The involvement of civil society and business and the use of open data play a decisive role.

Polarisiertes Brasilien

Analyse und Ausblick ein Jahr vor der Präsidentschaftswahl

Angesichts des mangelhaften Corona-Krisenmanagements, wachsender Armut und hoher Inflationsraten liegen die Zustimmungswerte von Jair Bolsonaro gut ein Jahr vor der Präsidentschaftswahl auf dem niedrigsten Niveau seit seiner Amtseinführung. Seit Monaten versucht der Präsident, mit gezielten Sticheleien und Provokationen seine Gegner in Politik und Justiz zu attackieren und seine Anhänger zu mobilisieren. Massendemonstrationen beider Lager, insbesondere am Nationalfeiertag, machen jedoch lediglich die fortschreitende Spaltung des Landes als Folge dieser Politik deutlich und befeuern immer wieder die Debatte um die Wehrhaftigkeit der brasilianischen Demokratie und ihrer Institutionen.
