AbstractRussia, like other countries, is facing a challenge to integrate new Information and Communication technologies in its administrative system. This chapter traces the evolution of e-Government concept from the first state program “Electronic Russia” (2002) to the latest “Government as a Platform” (2018) concept. Analyzing the digital transformation of government through the lens of public administration, the chapter demonstrates procedural, infrastructural, and political challenges that shaped the Russian version of electronic government. Emphasizing the discrepancy between plans and reality, we show how the “Russian style” of unrolling e-Government from above in combination with the focus on infrastructures have created a situation where further development of the reform has stagnated. Finally, the tensions between transparency and control accentuated by digitalization in Russian public administration are discussed.

The article compares the processes of dissemination of modern information and communication technologies in government bodies in Russia and abroad. It is stated that Russia began the transition to «electronic government» later than the developed countries, in which this process was launched within the framework of large-scale and comprehensive programs for reforming public administration in the 1980s and 1990s. However, to date, there is an alignment in the pace and content of digitalization tasks. At a new stage in this process, the concept of «electronic government» under the influence of such newest phenomena of the emerging information society as methods of analysis of «big data», «artificial intelligence», «Internet of things», «blockchain» is being transformed into the category of «digital government». Achievements and prospects of public administration digitalization are considered on the example of countries with the highest ratings — Denmark, Australia, Republic of Korea, Great Britain, USA and Russia.

Definition Of

In general terms, electronic government (or digital government) refers to the selection, implementation, and use of information and communication technologies in government settings (Dawes & Pardo, 2002; Fountain, 2001; Garson, 2004; Moon, 2002). E-government research is a transdisciplinary endeavor including traditions such as public administration, public policy, management information systems, operations management, and information science. Partially because of the novelty of the concept, but also because of its multidisciplinary nature, the concept of e-government is still a work in progress. The purpose of this article is to review different definitions and conceptual approaches to electronic government, analyzing their conceptual amplitude and distinguishing characteristics. The article presents a comprehensive definition of electronic government based on current definitions and a well-established theoretical framework in public administration. The article ends with a brief discussion of some future trends in electronic government.

Institutional Communication

Efficient communication is one the most important instruments used for the purpose of generating change inside and outside an organization. It can contribute to adjusting attitudes and the manner of approaching the present and future challenges and to changing behavioral patterns. The mission and the objectives of organizational communication are highly interrelated with organizational change and environment characteristics, in which the organization functions. The communication performed by the public administration institution outside is an institutional communication, extra-organizational, which presents the following purposes: strengthening its image, stimulating an environment of trust and affinity from the citizens (Kotler & Lee, 2007). We are of opinion that the management of communication performed by a public administration institution features three fundamental aspects, relevant for institutional communicators when designing and managing the institutional communication: communication efficiency, communication process and the implications of the new information and communication technologies (ICT) for this process.

The adoption of fully electronic public procurement (EPP) systems is a requirement laid out in a group of European Union directives. These standards seek to improve the rationalization of resources (i.e., on an economics level) in public administration through the replacement of paper-based procedures with electronic services (i.e., e-services), thereby contributing to the growth of electronic government (i.e., e-government) in all member states. This chapter evaluates the impacts of EPP based on information and communication technologies. Research was conducted in Portugal, in which data on five companies operating on an international scale were examined for any organizational difficulties in the adoption of e-procurement. The findings include the positive impacts of following the objectives of the European Union directives in question. User satisfaction regarding EPP-related electronic platforms was also investigated.

Information disseminated through digital networks has a fundamental impact on social welfare, given the range of opportunities offered by the digital economy and the new information and communication technologies, with profound impacts in several areas, namely work, education,and increase the quality and efficiency of public services.The creation of a more efficient, effective, more transparent public administration capable of providing public services with a higher quality level and in an integrated way to the citizen is one of the great objectives and at the same time one of the great challenges that the professionals of public administration face. The state has the social role of avoiding info-exclusion by applying measures directed at the population at risk. Such measures should be able to be applied in the governmental organs closest to the target population. The objective of this study will focus on the analysis of the transition of municipalities to the digital society.

Digitalization, that is, organizational renewal through new information and communication technologies, has long been invested with a fantasmic logic of affording alternative organizational ideals – democratic and not-for-profit rather than hierarchical and for-profit. Responding to calls to study the darker side of Silicon Valley inspired utopia, this paper investigates how and when organizational work on digitalization fantasies undermines organizational ideal renewal. In particular, this paper draws on the extended case of Alternative Bank (1963–2019) to shed light on how the long-term co-evolution of fantasy sublogics and power types in successive digital transformation projects induces organizational ideal reversal. I provide a theoretical model of how organizational ideal reversal comes about through the co-evolutionary conditioning of ‘have your cake and eat it’ affordances, mimetic neglect of real ethical affordances, and structural transgression of the ideal in the name of market and technical discipline. Ideal reversal occurs through consecutive phases of unwitting ideal transgression, followed by increasingly cynical and instrumentalizing transgression, and finally a cathartic moment of liberating ideal reversal. I advance several theoretical propositions on how digital fantasy work induces organizational ideal reversal, situating the dark side of fantasy work within a larger societal critique.

The Government

(TIC), en pro de mejorar la provisión de servicios, el acercamiento y las relaciones de la administración pública con los ciudadanos. Por esta razón, en este artículo se analiza cómo las TIC e Internet son utilizadas por parte del gobierno central en la prestación de servicios públicos. Realizada la revisión bibliográfica-documental, se concluye que el gobierno electrónico es una herramienta tecnológica con la potencialidad de incluir social, política y económicamente a los ciudadanos, por este hecho, el reto de la administración pública es involucrar a éstos en las actividades de la gestión pública. El Gobierno Electrónico Nacional está compuesto por soluciones institucionales y e-servicios que en su gran mayoría son soluciones que, de manera aislada, las instituciones públicas han desarrollado con anterioridad, además de una nueva institucionalidad con una planeación estratégica inicial y base legal que le permite iniciar su desarrollo y reflexión. Finalmente, si bien es cierto que existe un aumento del Indice de Desarrollo del Gobierno Electrónico (EGDI) en este último periodo bianual, éste es una oportunidad de mejora para la Administración Pública Nacional. AbstractIn order to improve the Public Administration service delivery, approach, and relations with citizens, the Ecuadorian central government administration has developed activities based on information and communication technologies (ICTs). Therefore, this article presents an analysis of the way ICTs and Internet are used by the central government to deliver public services. Once the bibliographic and documentary review is finished, the conclusion is that the electronic government is a technological tool with the potential of including citizens from the social, political, and economical point of view. Hence, the challenge of public administrations is to involve citizens in the government administration activities; the national electronic government is composed of institutional solutions and e-services mostly are solutions in isolation public institutions have developed previously, besides a new institutional framework with an initial strategic planning and legal basis that allows you to start your development and reflection. Finally, while it is true that there is an increase in e-government development index (EGDI) in the last two-year period, the electronic government is an improvement opportunity for the National Public Administration.
