Orta Afrika'da elektronik yönetişim: zorluklar ve beklentiler
Abstract
African administrations suffer from slow and cumbersome administrative procedures. Administrative rigidity usually leads to impasse and some citizens do not hesitate to circumvent the administrative formalism by trying to bribe agents of the state or by playing their relations to benefit from a public service. It is in this context of poor governance that Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are developing in Central Africa. ICT, especially the Internet, is generating hope in Central Africa for better governance, one that relies on the use of ICTs for government services and electronic governance. Indeed, throughout Central Africa, governments are trying to put in place governance mechanisms that take into account the opportunities that ICTs offer to better meet the expectations of the population. Administration or e-governance is, so to speak, a major concern for African states. However, this study offers a comprehensive analysis of the expectations and challenges of e-government in Central Africa by relying on data provided by the United Nation and the International Telecommunications Union (IUT).
