“…We found very limited research on the relation between e-governance and competitiveness. More specifically Abu-Shanab (2016) realizes that e-government has a significant impact on competitiveness, based on the countries included in the UN e-government readiness index report in 2014. Our paper finds similar results over an extended period (2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016)(2017)(2018)(2019)(2020)(2021).…”

This paper investigates the contribution of e-government and the implementation of digital practices in the daily administrative procedures of the state/ government to the prevention of corruption and the consolidation of transparency in the transactions between citizens and authorities. It focuses in particular on the period 2007-2021, covering the years 2020 and 2021, when the implementation of digital practices skyrocketed in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. The analysis employs a series of variables that represent the development of e-government and the digitization of public procedures and

“…Brazil and South Africa are the only members of their respective groups to be on their own. In a study, Abu-Shanab (2016) [8] used the World Economic Forum's Worldwide Competitiveness Index (GCI) and the United Nations e-government readiness index (UN-EGRI) to measure global competitiveness. The UN-sub-dimensions EGRI and the GCI were estimated to be associated.…”

This research investigates the effect of state governance of BRICS nations on their global competitiveness and specific aspects of competitiveness factors, i.e., Knowledge, Technology, and Future Readiness, for the period of 2017-2021 using World Bank's World Governance Indicators (WGI) as the independent variable and IMD's World Competitiveness Ranking (WCR) as the dependent variable. The role of state governance emerged as an important source of global competitiveness and its factors for BRICS nations in the results which revealed certain specific crucial relationships. Overall, 37.68% variation in the WCR rankings of BRICS nations is determined by four key dimensions of WGI namely Government Effectiveness, Political Stability and Absence of Violence, Regulatory Quality, and Control of Corruption with the Control of Corruption being the most significant variable in the model. For the hypotheses relating the State Governance and specific factors of Knowledge, Technology, and Future Readiness, the highest contribution of 40.19% is revealed to be contributed by these four governance variables in Technology rankings, followed by 32.93% variation in Future Readiness and 27.03% in Knowledge. The results provide evidence for the role of the quality of governments and governance in securing global competitiveness by nations. The results are particularly useful for strategic state governance planning and implementations for BRICS nations to improve their competitive global rankings individually and collectively, particularly in the dimensions of control of corruption, government effectiveness, political stability, and absence of violence.

“…In developed nations, all citizens get the access to the national services using the handset devices, thereby incorporating an all-incisive citizens' participation [27]. Further analysis by Abu-Shanab [1] considers cloud computing as a technology that involves a rapid transmission of the processed data from the soft stores to the cloud. E-government and e-participation are two intertwined aspects of online interaction.…”

Cloud computing is an effective technology for businesses and government sections to enhance their performance. In many modern countries adoption of cloud computing improves its success in reducing the costs with high level of eservices offered to citizens. However, many developing countries are still reluctant to adopt cloud computing and received very little empirical support. This study reviews the literature of this domain and builds a model to examine the main drivers that help decision makers in adoption of cloud technology with e-government sectors. Based on a sample of 326 respondents data analyzed using the Structural Equation Modelling though Smart Partial Least Squares technique. The study revealed that mobility, cost, backup & disaster recovery, scalability & flexibility are the key drivers that significantly affect employees’ intention to adopt cloud computing for governmental units which in turn positively influence the effectiveness of e-participation Keywords: Cloud computing, E-government, E-participation, Scalability, Mobility, Backup & Disaster recovery.
