The government decision-making information base is a non-profit research and consulting institution that focuses on strategic issues and public policies and serves scientific, democratic and legal decision-making. It can be seen that the government decision-making information base is a new type of service organization that takes the unit as the service object, takes policy research consultation as the research content, and provides innovative research results (suggestions, reports, policy consultation, seminars, articles, works, etc.). ).
The operation mechanism of information database is naturally related to intelligence work, and intelligence agencies play a front-end supporting role in think tank services, so the theory and practice in information research work can also provide key support for the effective operation of information database.
Information user theory
The "information user theory", which plays an important role in information research, holds that every information user can consciously judge information needs and construct his own knowledge according to his own complex situation. The user demand theory of "cognitive view" is established, which emphasizes the inherent regularity of user demand. The user's information demand determines the content and form of information service, and guides the organization and resource construction scheme of information service institutions.
According to the "information user theory", the construction of new information base should start with analyzing the decision-making information needs of its users (government departments). The content, structure and characteristics of decision-making information demand are sorted out in order to meet the government's decision-making information demand. Construct the organization and operation mechanism of think tanks, so as to provide valuable ideological products and serve the formulation of public policies.
