Year of Graduation: 2018

Nowadays the significance of ICT for any sphere of our life is difficult to overestimate. After a wide dissemination of modern technologies in the commercial sector in the middle 1900’s the first ideas about the usage of ICT in public sector to improve its effectiveness and quality of state services appeared. In Russia, the first steps to introduce ICT in government activities were made only in the first half of the 2000s due to the need to reform public administration and neutralize a significant technological gap, as well as the growing popularity of the concept of e-government in the world, taking into account the prioritization of ICT development. The purpose of the study is to analyze the Russian state policy in the field of e-government from its beginning in 2002 to the present time, identify the stages of e-government evolution and find out the factors which influence on this process at the regional level.
