Zusammenfassung: | More openness in the daily operation of public administrations is expected to increase their legitimacy and citizen trust in their activities. However, the effects generated by transparency reforms have raised numerous debates. Firstly, the relationship between transparency and trust can be multidirectional. Secondly, this relationship refers to a fragile balance since too much communication about sensitive issues may reduce citizen trust in public organizations. Finally, trust stems from multiple factors, thereby diminishing the impact of transparency. These various issues are analyzed and exemplified through concrete cases, based on a literature review of both scientific and media articles. Il est attendu du fonctionnement plus ouvert des administrations un regain de confiance citoyenne et de legitimite. Toutefois, les effets produits par la transparence alimentent de nombreux debats. D'abord, la relation entre transparence et confiance peut etre multidirectionnelle. Ensuite, elle correspond a un equilibre fragile dans la mesure ou un surplus de communication sur des enjeux sensibles peut reduire la confiance dans les organisations publiques. Enfin, la confiance se cree a partir de multiples facteurs, reduisant ainsi l'impact de la transparence. Ces differents enjeux sont analyses sur la base d'une revue de la litterature scientifique et mediatique et d'exemples. |
