Handbook of Research on E-Government in Emerging Economies: Adoption, E-Participation, and Legal Frameworks

Introduction to E-Government Applications

E-government applications enable interaction amongst government departments, citizens, and businesses. Benefits of e-government include encouraging social inclusion (citizens are able to participate in various socio-economic activities such as decision-making), e-participation (facilitate e-democracy/e-voting), enacting effectiveness of public service delivery by allowing seamless integration of government departments and so forth.

Importance of Context in Implementation

Understanding the context in which e-government applications should be implemented is critical to e-government success.
