Identifying Factors of the Fiasco of the Jian-Chen Roundabout Regeneration Project: Participatory Governance Perspective

The main purpose of this paper is to apply the perspective of participa-tory governance to explore the fiasco of Jian-Chen Roundabout regeneration project. During the process of regeneration, Taipei City Government con-venes the public meetings in accordance with the law. However, the policy still failed. Therefore, this paper plans to analyze the gap between policy in-tention and policy outcomes.
This paper first of all explores the theory of participatory governance. Secondary, using documentary analysis and interviews with the main stake-holders, the results point out four causes for participation gap and its signifi-cant factors. Besides, it also applies the core concepts to design the outline of the interview. Finally, the paper uses the software of MAXQDA to explain the results of in-depth interviews.
The findings in terms of participatory gap can be summarized as fol-lows: (1) the rule of law limits the autonomy and the ability of government negotiation; (2) the institution of public meetings cannot promote the sub-stance of participatory governance; (3) experts and technocrats cannot ap-preciate the importance of citizen participation; and (4) the capacity of par-ticipatory governance of citizens needs to be upgraded.
