Kurzbeschreibung

Advances in information and communication technologies have made a significant contribution to the modernization of public administration. This book investigates how the internet is being used as a tool for updating local government, providing a comprehensive understanding of one of the most important organizational innovations of our time. "Local Electronic Government "is one of two volumes presenting a comparative study of the implementation of electronic government. This particular volume compares and assesses attempts to create efficient and user-friendly electronic government at a local, municipal level, analyzing the strategies and technologies applied, and the applications realized in order to do so. It investigates both how to implement successful e-government within and among the various administrative levels and the potentials and limits of transferring best practice to under-performing cities. This book includes new empirical research on e-government within the USA, the UK, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Japan. It will appeal to students and researchers of electronic government and public administration in general. Readers of this book may also be interested in its companion volume, "National Electronic Government."
