THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY IN COMBATING CORRUPTION
LUMINIŢA IONESCUABSTRACT. This study is grounded in the considerable body of scholarship examining citizens’ expectations about open government, potential determinants for attitudes toward the new aspects of e-government, the capability to utilize e-government for socio-economic development purposes, and social media’s impact on e-government. My analysis complements the growing literature on the current state of social media use in government, the government-citizen relationship, the extent to which e-government use influences attitude about the new modes of e-government, and the impacts of macro-environmental factors on the diffusion, growth, and maturity of e-government globally. pp. 101–106
