Abstract

Background: Several studies have investigated Government Public Relations (GPR) over the last few decades. However, very little exhaustive research has been conducted on this issue so far. Purpose: The study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the literature and a bibliometric analysis of GPR based on existing empirical research. Methods: The study employed a Systematic Literature Review, searching for the phrase “Government Public Relations” in article titles, abstracts, and keywords in the Scopus database, yielding 126 articles from 1976 to 2025. The evaluation was done on October 19, 2025. The raw data were analyzed bibliometrically using VOSviewer. Results: The research shows that GPR has experienced remarkable worldwide expansion, with the greatest concentration in the United States and Indonesia. This growth is driven primarily by digital transformation, global crises, demands for democratization, the complexity of global issues, and the professionalization of GPR. Conclusion: The GPR sector in emerging countries is still under-researched. Research works in the past have primarily dealt with advanced countries, for example, the United States and South Korea. Future research should address the needs of developing countries, particularly Africa, Latin America, and Central Asia. The paper argues that there are five essential qualities of effective GPR: transparency, accountability, public participation, responsiveness, and two-way communication. The paper also analyses the conceptual framework of GPR. Implications: The consequences for the sustainable administration and development of government organizations and for ensuring their adherence to GPR principles.

Abstract

This study analyzes deliberative communication practices in urban land conflict, focusing on how communities build and maintain deliberative spaces under structural constraints. A qualitative case study was conducted on the Dago Elos land conflict in Bandung City, involving 331 families facing eviction claims. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with four stakeholder representatives: community leaders, legal aid organizations, local government officials, and land administration agencies. The study reveals three key findings: (1) Institutional fragmentation creates a complete absence of formal dialogue forums between communities and government, forcing communities to develop alternative communication strategies; (2) Counter-public sphere innovation through the Forum Dago Melawan demonstrates successful implementation of deliberative principles (equal participation, consensus-building, reason-giving) at the grassroots level, functioning as a genuine democratic laboratory; (3) Hybrid communication strategies emerge as communities combine rational argumentation with mass mobilization, challenging the traditional dichotomy between reasoned deliberation and political action. Mass actions prove effective in forcing institutional responses when formal channels remain closed, demonstrating that collective mobilization can function as deliberative communication under non-ideal conditions. The research expands deliberative communication theory by showing that deliberative principles can function in non-ideal conditions through creative adaptation and grassroots institutional innovation. Counter-public spheres like Forum Dago Melawan can successfully implement Habermas's ideal speech situation in local settings, while hybrid strategies combining reason-giving with collective action create communicative power capable of influencing administrative responses despite structural power asymmetries. These findings suggest that genuine deliberative communication requires acknowledging and addressing power inequalities rather than hiding them behind claims of procedural neutrality.
