Abstract

Risk Management (RM) themes have a central role in private and public admin-istration, improving its performance and resilience, as affirmed by many authors in recent years. The involvement of citizens in public processes derives from the New Public Governance influences, and the evolved consideration from citizen, to partner and customer. However, few authors have investigated whether and how citizen participation is involved in the RM process. This paper aims to cover the gap on the citizens' role in the RM process of public administration organizations, with a focus on corruption risk. In particular, the analysis focused on Italian mu-nicipalities and was conducted on a sample of 110 provincial capitals. Though the analysis of the Italian legislation, we discuss whether access requests (ARs) are a useful tool for citizens through which to exercise their control activity, thus partici-pating in the RM process of the municipality.

公民在市政风险管理过程中的作用:意大利概况

正如近年来许多作者所肯定的那样，风险管理(RM)主题在私人和公共管理中具有核心作用，可以改善其绩效和弹性。公民在公共过程中的参与源于新公共治理的影响，以及从公民到合作伙伴和客户的演变考虑。然而，很少有作者研究公民参与是否以及如何参与RM过程。本文旨在弥补公共行政组织RM过程中公民角色的空白，重点关注腐败风险。该分析特别侧重于意大利的直辖市，并对110个省会城市进行了抽样分析。通过对意大利立法的分析，我们讨论了访问请求(ARs)是否是公民行使其控制活动的有用工具，从而参与市政当局的RM过程。
