Purpose

This work highlights the potential of blockchain from a public management (PM) angle. Given the limited presence of blockchain's broad-spectrum, empirical-applicative evidence in the public sector, as well as theoretical systematisations that can exemplify its potential within this scope, the authors have concentrated their efforts on structuring a referring model.

Design/methodology/approach

After identifying a gap and conducting a preliminary literature review related to public administration (PA), the authors propose a paradigm focused on a conceptual synthesis methodology, starting from a longitudinal analysis and a coding activity that are able to structure a clear framework of theoretical parallelism regarding blockchain's main functionalities, as well as future perspectives in the public sector.

Findings

The main results yielded a specific longitudinal literature review and constitute a referring model of blockchain's systematised functionalities through a conceptualised matrix. The outcome of the conceptualisation process frames and systematises a rapidly growing controversial phenomenon, furnishing a specific referring paradigm for the issue as it relates to policymakers.

Originality/value

The study's originality resides in the two views the authors created, both from the literature review and from the conceptual synthesis for public sector operative practice via an anthropocentric lens, conveyed by a three-year range of analysis.

区块链信息基础设施：对公共行政程序和以公民为中心的观点的概念反思

目的

这项工作从公共管理 (PM) 的角度突出了区块链的潜力。鉴于区块链在公共部门中的广谱性、实证应用性证据以及可以在此范围内举例说明其潜力的理论系统化的存在有限，作者已集中精力构建参考模型。

设计/方法/方法

在确定差距并进行与公共行政 (PA) 相关的初步文献审查后，作者提出了一个专注于概念综合方法的范式，从纵向分析和能够构建清晰的理论并行框架的编码活动开始关于区块链的主要功能，以及公共部门的未来前景。

发现

主要结果产生了特定的纵向文献综述，并通过概念化矩阵构成了区块链系统化功能的参考模型。概念化过程的结果构建并系统化了一个迅速增长的有争议的现象，为与决策者相关的问题提供了特定的参考范式。

原创性/价值

该研究的独创性在于作者创造的两种观点，既来自文献综述，也来自通过以人类为中心的视角对公共部门运营实践进行的概念综合，并通过为期三年的分析传达。
