Attitudinal readiness assessment for establishing electronic governance

This paper presents findings of an attitudinal readiness assessment to establish electronic participatory governance (EPG) in a developing country context. It explores major components of barriers to electronic governance through a case study analysis and proposes an initial framework. The main findings reveal that the readiness of relevant actors (e.g., government officials, elected representatives, citizens, civil society groups, private sector groups) are the key issues in establishing EPG. It is argued that the findings of this study will assist both government and donor organisations to identify potential barriers to implement the new governance in developing nations.
