Developing hand in hand with e-Business in its use of
information and communication technologies (ICTs), e-Government
emerged in the 1990s with the promise of a more accessible,
efficient and transparent form for public institutions to perform
and interact with citizens. The successes-and some critics say,
general failures-of e-Government initiatives around the world have
led to the development of e-Governance-a broader, more encompassing
concept that involves not only public institutions but private ones
as well.
Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this book explores
e-Governance in theory and practice with an analytical narrative
from heterodox perspectives. Covering such essential issues as
global governance of the Internet, the European Knowledge Economy,
the transformative promise of mobile telephony, the rise of
e-Universities, Internet accessibility for the disabled and
e-Governance in transition economies, this book draws on
contributions from experienced academics and practitioners with an
expertise in an emerging field. In addition, each chapter includes
such features as discussion of key issues that draw on case studies
in order to facilitate significant discussion questions.
