Special isue on the experiences of developing countries of the transformation of public services through the adoption of e-government
Submission Due Date
10/31/2015
Guest Editors
Dr. Frank Louis Kwaku Ohemeng, University of Ottawa, Canada
This special issue attempts to fill the lacuna left by the lack of empirical studies on the adoption and implementation of e-government in developing countries. It will thus draw on case studies to determine whether or not e-government is transforming, or has actually transformed, the relevant public sector institutions. The questions this special issue attempts to answer include: What is meant by the transformation of public services through e-government? Is there in fact any hard evidence delineating the transformation of public sector institutions through the adoption of e-government? If so, can such transformation be solely attributed to e-government and, if not, then what other factors may account for any transformation or lack thereof? What are the challenges and prospects for the adoption of e-government in public sector institutions in developing countries?

Postdoctoral researcher opportunity - applying emerging ‘big text’ approaches in mixed-methods environmental policy research
An opportunity exists at Emory University for a motivated and productive early-career researcher to join Dr. Murray Rudd’s new environmental social science lab in the Department of Environmental Sciences. The position will focus on applying emerging methods for text mining and other ‘Big Text’ approaches to environmental policy challenges. The project will include theoretical, practical, and policy-focused aspects – one of the goals will be to advance empirical applications within the Narrative Policy Framework. While a marine or freshwater focus is desirable, the substantive focus on particular environmental issues will be flexible for the successful candidate.
