Abstract

We examine how stakeholders (n = 74) in the United Kingdom, Finland and Norway perceive security authorities’ online surveillance capabilities, and how these perceptions form patterns transcending national borders and organisational boundaries. Using a Q-methodological approach, we found variation within and between nations that is usually obscured in the polarised public debates. Furthermore, our stakeholders presented areas of consensus not usually apparent in public discourses. We argue for using awareness of this nuance and areas of convergence as platforms on which to build more effective public debates to further principles of deliberative democracy.

利益相关者对在线监控能力的看法：英国、芬兰和挪威辩论的比较分析

我们研究了英国、芬兰和挪威的利益相关者（n = 74）如何看待安全部门的在线监控能力，以及这些看法如何形成超越国界和组织边界的模式。利用 Q 方法，我们发现了国家内部和国家之间的差异，这些差异通常在两极分化的公开辩论中被掩盖。此外，我们的利益相关者还提出了在公共讨论中通常并不明显的共识领域。我们主张利用对这种细微差别和共识领域的认识作为平台，在此基础上开展更有效的公开辩论，以推进协商民主的原则。
