PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS A TOOL OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
ELVIRA NICAABSTRACT. The theory that I shall seek to elaborate here puts considerable emphasis on the growing tendency for e-government and electronic service distribution, the embracing of e-government instruments to accelerate regulatory reform, and the capacity of empowered communities and cooperative governance for sustainable development. The results of the current study converge with prior research on e-government schemes focused on advancing successful public governance and regulatory management, public administration as a tool of sustainable development, and the sustainability of information technology in government entities. The paper generates insights about e-government’s advantages for sustainable development, adequate use of sustainable online services, and citizen participation as a key component of sustainable development. pp. 30–36
