Cuvinte cheie:
Romanian e-government, public policy, political commitment, digital servicesRezumat
In 2009, the Romanian Government engaged itself to the ambitious goal of providing most of the traditional administration services through electronic means. Our aim is to assess the policy’s chances of success by looking both at the history and the current level of e-development in Romania. To achieve this goal we are examining the commitment from top government officials, and the offer of e-services that citizens need. We conclude that the current level of these factors in Romania do not allow a quick implementation of a large-scale e-government public policy.
