The master's thesis analyzes the problems of smart city cultural governance. The smart governance of cultural policy is perceived as a multidimensional phenomenon that includes the smartness, smart management, smart public management and smart cultural management. In order to reveal the problematic aspects of the research, the aim was to develop a theoretical model of smart city cultural governance and to evaluate Šiauliai city smart cultural governace functioning. The result of qualitative content analysis based on scientific sources is 3 chapters of the theoretical part: smart management, smart city and expression of intelligence in cultural management. The smart governance chapter reveals the key aspects of smartness as a fundamental component of the smart social system and the concepts of smart governance, smart public governance. Second chapter introduces the key concepts of smart city, discusses the essentials of smart city, presents smart city model, identifies the quality of smart social system. The third chapter presents and discusses different conceptual approaches of cultural management, on which are based theoretical model of smart city cultural governance. The theoretical smart city cultural governance model consists of six dimensions and eighteen qualities of a smart social system. The methodological part of the research describes the chosen qualitative research strategy, which is applied for: analysis of the content of scientific sources, analysis of the content of legal acts and informants' provisions. The theoretical model of smart city cultural governance is based on the results of the analysis of theoretical sources and a partially structured interview results. In the analysis part of the research results legal acts of different level are analyzed: legal acts of the European Union, Lithuanian national level (strategic documents, legal acts), local level strategic documents. The project of the law called the Fundamentals of Lithuania culture, which is going a long way to be confirmed by the Parlament of the Republic of Lithuania, is also analyzed. 10 informants participated in the survey of informants' attitudes. The content analysis of the informants' attitudes was done, on which base was formed Šiauliai smart culture governing model.

The aim of the research is to substantiate the methodological foundations of empirical research by revealing the concept of the expression of dimensions of smartness in cultural management. The article formulates theoretical construct based on expression of smartness dimensions in cultural management. This construct is formulating by combining cultural management and smart governance concepts and closely linking cultural management with the implementation of cultural policy and seeing the specifics of smart cultural management. The expression of smartness dimensions at culture management model consist of six main dimensions: strategics, creative development, harmonization of interests in the cultural sector, empowered cultural sector parties, harmony of intellectual and technological capital, the culture of shared value creation. Methodology strategy is based on two philosophical approaches by combining induction and deduction which result is abduction approach. Qualitative analysis was performed of theoretical sources of foreign countries and Lithuania. Another part of qualitative research is based on the interviewing chosen respondents to get information about the expression of smartness dimensions at culture management model functioning. There would be chosen about 30 experts (till data saturation) by using quadruple helix. Experts are chosen from government, science, business and nongovernmental organizations' sphere. Gained results let to form research results conception which consists of three parts: theoretical model, current situation model, perspective situation model. The trajectory of the change from the current situation model to the perspective situation model helps to highlight the areas requiring improvement of the functioning of the cultural field, planned directions (trends) of change. In future research, it is planned to form the indicators for all 6 theoretical dimensions of the expression of smartness dimensions at culture management model. Analysis based on this theoretical model also will ...

The article analyzes the typology aspects of: network structures, which develop integration opportunities; network systems, models and types; networking processes and their efficiency, effectiveness, functional possibilities. The authors, based on the opportunities of interpretive methods and theoretical modeling, in the article seek to summarize the indicators of newly developed new public governance doctrine, in which public administration theorists distinguish different types of policy, management and economic networks systems, described as a network structures and networking. As important task, the authors of this article hold the necessity to disclose the positions of the various authors, analyzing the interactions between the networking participants' quantitative and qualitative dimensions, normative and standardized elements of state institutions, as decision making, conflict regulation, the development of networks and networking as a systematic processes and organization performance management. The particular attention the authors distinguish to the social relations, i.e. the organizational functioning and cultural aspects of social networking, and the categorization analysis of social capital (in the context of the networking process). The authors conclude that modern public governance, influenced by global changes, has a multidimensional nature and the characteristics of cross-sectoral interaction and development of network structure formation. A special factor of new public governance becomes the development of hybrid organizations. These factors are the priority dimensions of scientific academic debates. They are underlined in the fixation of new public governance indicators, management process of public sector organizations, establishing organizational culture, value orientations and behaviour standards. Networking as a form of public government, becomes increasingly important instrumentation in modern [.]

In the evolution of public governance, the wide range of public governance changes and reforms require the consolidation of innovative ideology and practice. Therefore it is necessary to modify traditional governance values, to develop the options of incremental change models, to improve the functioning of social systems and subsystems, their activities and communication between them. In the modern era of globalization and development of information technology, many functions and processes are being implemented by using network systems. Networks are an essential structural form, which helps to seek the new knowledge, to exchange information and experiences, and networking ensures these processes and their results. Network and networking researches in recent decades have become important not only in informatics or economics, but also in other scientific fields such as political science, sociology and public administration. Innovative solutions, related to the development of networked forms in the governance of public sector organizations, become increasingly important in the evolution of new public governance doctrine. By the influence of networked forms of governance, the public sector becomes more decentralized, pluralistic and provides the opportunities to consolidate cooperation with non-governmental subjects. Networks are becoming an important alternative to hierarchy and control mechanisms. The problem of this research is the complexity of networking dimensional specification in the rapidly changing modern public governance. The purpose of the study is to identify the key concepts of networking constructions and practice opportunities in the environment of the public governance changes. The article analyzes the typology aspects of: network structures, which develop integration opportunities; network systems, models and types; networking processes and their efficiency, effectiveness, functional possibilities.

A special factor of new public governance becomes the development of hybrid organizations. These factors are the priority dimensions of scientific academic debates. They are underlined in the fixation of new public governance indicators, management process of public sector organizations, establishing organizational culture, value orientations and behaviour standards. Networking as a form of public government, becomes increasingly important instrumentation in modern public government methodologies and practices. Networking qualitative characteristics depend on many factors: the preparation of organizations, the professionalism of supervisors, leaders and managers, the development of democratic governance trends, the interaction with stakeholders and associations. Important factor (especially in an official and centralized networking level) becomes the social and service networks and the political, administrative and legal regulation of networks performance, which establish the responsibility, functional purposes, the forms of informal networks in organizations, and the rules of performance. The successful and efficient functioning of networking is possible only if there are created network systems with the explicit dimensions of social networks and social performance systems. ; Straipsnyje, remiantis mokslinių šaltinių metaanalizės, mišrios analitinės sintezės, interpretacinio modeliavimo metodais, bandoma atskleisti esmines tinklaveikos, kaip šiuolaikinio viešojo valdymo etapo, tipologijos raiškos formas, tyrimo dėmesį sutelkiant į kompleksinį naujojo viešojo valdymo pobūdį, įvertinant tinklaveikos tyrimų metodologinį reikšmingumą, veiklos metodologiją traktuojant kaip viešųjų struktūrų tyrimo ir veiklos valdymo logiką.

The citizens' right to participate in the conducting the public affairs is accepted as one of the democracy principles constituting the base of the good governance. The members states of the European Council have to embed the participation principle in the internal laws and, if necessary, in the Constitutions. The legal aspects of participatory governance in local self-government are analysed in this article. In accordance with the documents of international organisations, international and Lithuanian acts of law, participation is one of main principles of the good governance. The analysis of participation principle helps to disclose in which way and in what forms local residents can participate in management of the public municipal affairs. It is identified, that the content of participation principle includes: direct participation of local residents in preparation of and discussion on the decisions' projects; direct participation of local residents in the meetings, rallies and polls; direct participation in the analysis of public petitions. Furthermore, the municipal institutions have to inculcate the principles of self-government in the institutions of education, cultural and in other, to support associations initiatives, which are related to the managing the public municipal affairs. Accomplished analysis of law acts allowed to establish that the implementation of residents' municipal rights is concurrent with the institutions, through which this right is implemented, and (or) with the organisation and activity of their accountable institutions.
