“…Less precise, but in the same vein, we can talk about a trusted IT solution, if it allows for reliable/stable/replicable argumentation in court cases involving business communications that are supported by the solution. Digital business communication solutions are large-scale solutions that consist of a technical design and an institutional design, compare with Koppenjan and Groenewegen, 2005 [10] (with respect to [10], compare also with [34]). We call the components (trusted parties; auxiliary technical/non-technical assets) of a trusted solution also trust anchors.…”

“…Therefore, the VAN provider exactly knows, who and when has sent/received which messages via the VAN. Other solutions can be designed to solve the problem of receiver -non-repudiation. Here, we describe a partially decentralized solution (iv-b) as found in the nation-wide data exchange layer X-Road 19,20 [42-44], which is the enabling backbone of the Estonian e-government ecosystem, compare also with [45][46][47]34]. X-Roads is based on a PKI (public key inftrastructure) for nation-wide e-identities and digital signatures and therefore has a legally trusted CA that at the same time serves as legally trusted TSA.…”

Our aim is to understand technological and socio-economic barriers to blockchain solutions that are intrinsic in the blockchain technology stack itself (permissionless as well as permissioned). On the basis of that, we want to understand the future potentioal impact of blockchain technology. We provide an argumentation against the theoretical background of Williamson's instutional analysis framework, and triangulate the insights with results from four design science research efforts. We (i) characterize cryptocurrency as one-tiered collateralized money. We (ii) review potential blockchain solutions against defined essential modes of communications. We review (iii) well-known scalability issues and potential denial-of-service attacks through a new probabilistic model. We (iv) characterize a typical neglection of physical network infrastructure in blockchain technology discussions. We (v) describe four successful blockchain solutions and explain their design. There is (vi) no evidence that the proclaimed ``blockchain revolution'' can disrupt our institutional stack; instead, it can only happen in the boundaries of the current institutional stack. Nevertheless, it is possible to (vii) design useful blockchain solutions. The findings of this research enable policy makers, decision makers and information systems architects alike to make informed decisions about blockchain technology and its application. Given its theoretic foundation in new institutional economics, triangulated with comprehensive results from design science efforts, this study is the first of its kind in the area of blockchain technology research. <br>

“…40 Nº 73 (2022): 172-191 in different EU member states. Bharosa et al (2020) studied e-governance in Estonia and the Netherlands and found that combination of institutions, information and communication technologies, legal tools and public administration help to achieve the effectiveness of e-government services. Tangi et al (2021) examined e-governance at the local level in Italy in the context of e-maturity of Italians.…”

The aim of the study was to identify the legal mechanisms for the establishment of e-government and the development of e-governance from the perspective of international law and national legislation of countries where the level of e-governance is very high. Empirical and theoretical methods of scientific knowledge, as well as the comparative analysis were used for a comprehensive coverage of the research topic. It is found that the community-oriented principles are the basis for the functioning of e-government with a view to the digital transformation values. The establishment of digital government in different countries with a very high level of e-governance has its own peculiarities related to the status of the national legal framework, institutional capacity and economic development, information policy and information security. It was established that the e-governance should be improved by eliminating the digital gap, raising the level of digital literacy, creating a single competent authority to regulate public e-governance policy, introducing a network system of access to e-government services, and establishing a system for training civil servants on the provision of electronic services. Further research on e-governance may be focused on follow-up study and argumentation in order to determine effective legal tools of its regulation.

“…With the bilateral agreement and connection of the Finland databases in the central server of X-Road, data stored in databases in both countries are shared by utilising the X-Road system [25]. It is very important to mention that X-Road is centrally governed and that it is used by all public administrations for all kinds of data exchanges, while it also allows uses by private parties [29].…”

The recent policy and regulatory initiatives of the EU, such as Digital Single Market Strategy, Single Digital Gateway, European Interoperability Framework and eIDAS, identify the need for digital cross-border integration in the EU. The achievement of the digital single market within the EU is challenging governments at all levels to transform or update their governance systems in order to establish the cross-border e-governance. The existing stage models in the e-Government literature, do not address the cross-border integration in the evolution phase of the e-Government. The heterogeneity and the legacy systems of the cross-border data exchange infrastructures hinders the process of seamless cross-border data exchange. This heterogeneity of cross-border data exchange infrastructures and complexity of the cross-border integration in the EU requires high level of interoperability in the legal, organisational, technical and semantic environment. Therefore, we explore the cross-border data infrastructures and its state of play in the EU by following the predominant framework that ensures the interoperability of the digital public services, EIF. We found that the most successful approach for cross-border e-governance and the cross-border integration might be the federated approach.
