Principally, I'm involved with the European eParticipation study, which aims to
provide an overall view of where Europe currently stands regarding
eParticipation and on this basis to provide recommendations for future
initiatives. But this work is mainly focused at the European and trans-national
level. See: www.european-eparticipation.eu
I've also done some case study work on local issues discusion forums, see a
presentation I gave in March: http://www.elost.org/smith.pdf
I have a paper based on this under review at present.
I'd be very interested in doing more work focusing on the local scale,
especially cross-national comparisons, so your suggestion sounded interesting.
