metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The research focuses on the question of the governance strategy of an increasingly complex
  social system. The complication related to the contemporary socio-political situation, which
  requires the participation of various stakeholders with their knowledge in the process of decision-
  making. Digital technologies as an ambiguous context and mediators of public communication
  exacerbate this issue. The author conducts research at the intersection of epistemological
  and socio-political contexts and implements conceptual analysis of governability
  and recursivity, revealed, firstly, to the problem of governing an increasingly complex system
  and, secondly, the conditions for its resolution. The concept of contingency supplements the
  concept of recursivity. The article consistently reveals the problematic nature of the concepts
  of governability and recursivity, the dual use of recursivity in political sciences, the ambiguity
  of the relationship between recursivity and contingency. The analysis of concepts allows
  identifying the conditions for both the involvement of additional active participants with their
  knowledge in governance, and their use as passive carriers of information. The author clarifies
  this alternative through two models of the relation of contingency and recursivity, namely, the “victory” or “defeat” of the first. As an example of how the models work, the author uses a
  study of citizen participation in city governance through digital platforms. She concludes that
  the governance strategy, taking into account the model of “victory” of contingency, provides
  conditions for the recognition of new active participants in decision-making processes.
