| Итог: | This article analyzes the governance of French metropolises, based on the discursive content and functionalities of their Extra-Organizational Financial Information System (EOFIS). The smart city is approached as an object of research and characterized by major fields of action (Giffinger et al., 2007), including governance. It is different in nature and takes precedence over others. Our research focuses on the elements of governance specific to the smart city, within the framework of analysis of the public governance system proposed by Mazouz et al. (2012, 2015) on four levels, ranging from institutions to management tools. Deployed across all French metropolises, the empirical approach is twofold. Firstly, to assess whether their EOFIS conveys the constituent themes of a smart city, i.e. “discursive intelligence”. The informative and communicative content is studied using automated textual analysis. Secondly, we study EOFIS as a smart city governance tool, i.e. “functional intelligence”, with an ad hoc analysis rubric evaluating information, communication, and participation. The data collected is the subject of an MCA (multiple correspondence analysis) revealing governance practices. The results show the heterogeneity of practices in this area, corroborating those of previous studies; while metropolises talk about governance, site functionalities and practices widely vary. Some are implementing the three aspects of smart governance: Information – Communication – Participation, and are proving to be true smart cities. Conversely, others make very limited use of EOFIS functionalities; most of them seem to be correctly informing and communicating, without going all the way, and ignoring citizen participation. Not all French metropolises are smart cities; some practice smart washing, which uses the positive image of the smart city. More precisely, using the EOFIS to measure city intelligence allows for four gradations: Smart City, Smart Washing, Mute Smart City and Not Smart. Beyond these various findings, the EOFIS proposes a new framework for analysis and constitutes a genuine tool for evaluating governance, contributing to its conceptualization (Rodriguez-Bolivar and Meijer, 2015). |
