摘　　要：加强数字政府建设是建设网络强国、数字中国等国家重大发展战略的基础性和先导性工程,是推进国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的重要举措。但数字政府建设“是否”“多大程度”“如何”提高了政府治理能力,现有研究缺乏理论阐释和经验证据。基于中国政府采购数据库、中国裁判文书数据库等多源数据,本文实证检验了数字公安对公安部门破案效率的影响和作用机制。研究发现,城市公共安全治理的数字化转型显著提高了城市盗窃和抢劫案件破案数量,并且城市公共安全治理的效能提升主要源于数字公安带来的破案效率提升,而非犯罪规模、数字金融、城市合力等竞争性机制的影响。另外,城市公共安全的数字化转型,还提升了居民幸福感和助推了城市企业创业活动。本文研究为更好地理解数字政府建设和数字公安的治理效能提供了理论释义和经验证据。Strengthening the construction of a digital government is a fundamental and pioneering project for major national development strategies,such as building a strong cyber power and a digital China.It is also a crucial measure to promote the modernization of the national governance system and capacity.Digital government refers to the use of digital technologies to enhance the effectiveness,efficiency,and transparency of government operations.By leveraging data analytics,artificial intelligence,and other advanced technologies,digital government aims to streamline administrative processes,improve public service delivery,and foster greater citizen engagement.Despite the potential benefits,there is still a significant gap in theoretical explanations and empirical evidence regarding whether,the extent,and how digital government construction has improved government governance capabilities.Existing research often lacks a comprehensive framework to evaluate the impact of digital initiatives on governance outcomes, and empirical studies are limited in scope and methodology. Takingthe public security department as an example, this study utilizes multiple data sources such as the ChinaGovernment Procurement Database, the China Judgment Document Database, the China CommunicationBase Station Information Database, and the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity Database. Byemploying various methods, including machine learning, text analysis, and instrumental variables, thisstudy examines the impact and mechanisms of digital policing on the efficiency of case resolution inpublic security departments. The study finds that, first, for every doubling of the digital procurementlevel in public security, the number of solved theft and robbery cases in cities increases by 3.88% and2.38%, respectively. This result remains significant even after employing 4G base stations as instrumentalvariables to address issues of omitted variables and measurement errors. Second, by excludingcompetitive hypotheses such as crime scale, digital f
