Electronic government and public administration
By: Brown, David.
Material type:
ArticlePublisher: 2005Description: p.241-54.Subject(s): Public administration | Electronic governance
In:
International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: Electronic government encompasses all government roles and activities, shaped by information and communications technologies (ICTs). Going well beyond analogies to e-commerce, it encompasses the four domains of governance and public administration: the state's economic and social programs; its relationships with the citizen and the rule of law (e-democracy), its internal operations and its relationship with the international environment. E-government builds on three evolving forces: technology, management concepts and government itself. It has given rise to several phenomena that are redefining the public sector environment, including the International Institute of Administrative Sciences. Four aspects of e-government have lasting impacts on public administration: citizen-centered service, information as a public resource, new skills and working relationships, and accountability and management models. The challenges of e-government are even more acute in developing countries, although it also offers solution. Public administration in all countries requires new thinking and leadership to ensure that e-government realizes its full potential. - Reproduced.
