TL;DRAbstract

European Commission 2003, p. 7. E-Government initiatives are being witnessed at all levels of government (local and federal governments, including legislative bodies, the judiciary, the tax administration, in the health sector, etc.). These initiatives can be grouped into four main categories: (1) the disseminating (passive or active) of relevant general public information to citizens, for example through websites, (2) the use of electronic processing and networks to improve the management of activities inside and across governmental departments, (3) the use of ICT to increase citizen participation in decision-making processes (e.g., e-petitions), and (4) the use of ICT for interaction with the citizen and service delivery (e.g., filing of tax return, access to personal file at the National Registry or on an e-health platform, filing of declarations in social security, etc.). For this Chapter, we focus on the activities in group (2) and (4).
