Resumen de Digital rights, public administrations and the European Union law.
The article explores the evolving landscape of digital rights within the EU, emphasizing their significance for public administrations and European citizenship. Initially, the expansion of the Internet raised issues around access and competition, prompting legislative efforts to protect citizens' digital rights, particularly regarding personal data and democratic principles. The EU's focus on creating a digital single market underscores the importance of advanced digital public services and data interoperability for economic development. Central to this digital transition is the concept of European digital citizenship, encompassing rights like good administration as outlined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU. The Single Digital Gateway Regulation exemplifies efforts to streamline access to information and administrative procedures, enhancing the digital relationship between EU institutions and citizens. The notion of digital citizenship is discussed in two dimensions: one focused on the rights and responsibilities within administrative processes, and the other on broader societal digital engagement. It is argued for a balanced approach that includes both rights and duties, encouraging citizens to engage responsibly with digital tools provided by public administrations. This dual approach aims to foster a comprehensive and effective digital administrative citizenship within the EU framework
