Since the introduction of computers and the emergence of electronic government in Latin American countries, especially the construction of tools for financial control and revenue in the state, citizen participation and social control have played a background role in governmental actions. However, currently we have observed an interesting phenomenon in this area and we can see the emergence of new forms created to build and implement a channel where the society can help to combat corruption through sending information about crime via the Internet. The study highlights experiences of several Latin American countries that have opted to implement the anti-corruption web as a tool for fighting corruption. We will study and compare these cases to identify what level of effectiveness this tool achieved in terms of expansion of interaction spaces and participatory involvement of social actors against the corruption. |
