520			_aSocial media are regarded to be a cornerstone for addressing the open government challenge that public administration faces. However, scientific knowledge about how social media can leverage open government is limited. Therefore, this study applies a mixed-methods research proceeding to develop a conceptual framework for the strategic use of social media concerning open government initiatives. The study concludes that social media applications can be strategically applied to foster open government and to improve citizen�government interaction. From the findings, strategic recommendations for open government-related social media adoption are developed and practical advice for responsible public managers is given. - Reproduced.
