Ramon Gil-Garcia Centro de Investigacin y Docencia Econmicas, Mexico To be published by IGI Global:http://bit.ly/uWJlBM This publication is part of the Advances in Electronic Government Research (AEGR) Book Serieshttp://www.igi-global.com/bookseries/details.asp?id=423 Introduction Electronic government has been increasingly used by countries around the world as a strategy for administrative reform. Government officials and public managers invest a great amount of time and financial resources in an attempt to achieve a myriad of potential benefits. However, e-government projects very frequently fail to deliver the expected benefits due to numerous technical, organizational, institutional, and contextual factors. In order to clearly assess the success of e-government initiatives it is necessary to clearly identify success measures and success factors. E-government success measures could be conceptualized as ways to measure and assess e-government expected characteristics, results, or benefits. In contrast, e-government success factors could be thought of as different variables, conditions, or factors that affect e-government initiatives. Together, e-government success measures and success factors will help us to better understand and evaluate the results of e-government initiatives. Objective of the Book 1 This book will aim to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area of e-government success. It will be written for academics and professionals who want to improve their understanding of e-government success factors and success measures at all levels of government and in very different political, economical, and cultural contexts. The book will be a compilation of selected high quality chapters covering concepts, theories, experiences, and practical recommendations on the topics of e-government success factors and e-government success measures. Target Audience The target audience of this book will be composed of professionals and researchers working in the field of government information technologies in various disciplines, e.g. public administration, political science, communication, information science, administrative sciences and management, sociology, computer science, and information technology, among others. Moreover, the book will provide insights and support to government executives concerned with the development, management, and evaluation of complex e-government initiatives. Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following: Assessment models for e-government success Case studies on e-government success E-government success in specific countries E-government success in information integration initiatives E-government success at the federal, state, and local levels E-government success - technological, organizational, and institutional factors E-government success - policy, political, economic, and social factors E-government success measures Emergent technologies and e-government success Empirical analysis of e-government success Fundamental concepts in e-government success Integrated models of e-government success Measuring e-government success Research-based practical recommendations for e-government success Theories to study e-government success Submission Procedure 2 Researchers are invited to submit on or before November 30, 2011, a 2-3 page chapter proposal clearly explaining the mission and concerns of his or her proposed chapter.
