In recent years, groups of digital activists, spread over different parts of the planet, conformed collectively a set of technical standards for publishing data on the web, so that they facilitate the capture and reuse of these elements. The political discourse associated with the defense of the provision of information according to these criteria made emerge a global coordination that has been called the open data movement. Its militancy maintains especially the need for publication of scientific and government data according to these parameters. Thus, in the context of political science, so-called open government data and its implications have been established as a relatively autonomous object of inquiry. This paper addresses the main aspects of the current debate on open government data and attempt to identify the context in which this discussion takes place, its meanings and most relevant implications in terms of improvement of democratic dynamics, especially with respect to transparency, social participation and collaborative governance. In this sense, the central aim of the dissertation is to examine how the practices of open government data can affect the process of formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policies. To this end, some aspects of the experiences of promoting open data carried out by the governments of the United States and Brazil are analyzed, in particular the political and administrative contexts in which they have given and the applications developed from the reuse of datasets offered by open data official pages from both countries. The paucity of Brazilian initiatives determined consulting the principals involved in discussions and actions related to the subject in the country through qualitative interviews and published statements. The final considerations intend to point out some of the most pressing challenges and possible ways to effect the potential publication of open government data as an instrument of democratic assertion
