While there is much exciting work being done, there is a pressing need to recontextualize public value theory (PVT), specifically in terms of its theoretical precepts, in the fluid and dynamic environment that the digital economy has produced. Much of the theoretical undergirding of PVT predates the full onset of todays digital economy, leaving aside phenomena including citizen-driven innovations, decentralized digital structures, and the algorithmic foundations of new economic life. \n\nThis is why a conceptually driven exercise in contemporizing PVT would be of great value to public administrations theoreticians seeking to lead the theory in catching up to the praxis.
