The Success Model of Evolution from Government to E-Governance

Abstract

As the world is streaming into an electronic world there are still huge communities that don’t understand the evolution government into the era of e-government. Many still do not understand what is meant by e-government and e–governance. At the same time they don’t understand how the actual transmission between the old government and the new e-government framework model works. This chapter develops a model to understand e-governance better and at the same time to help avoid possible problems during the period of transition from traditional government to e-government. Towards introducing the new model, we will also identify a few unique cases of e-government. As the heat of the business to consumer e-commerce (B2C) sector grows, public services are entering the frame whereby government-to-business (G2B) and government-to-citizen (G2C) services are becoming popular at local, regional, national, or even supranational level, albeit at a comparatively slower rate. Further, the concept of the traditional government model is a more conservative entity, slower to change into new initiatives, than operators in the commercial field.
