This is a call for papers for the 11th European Conference on eGovernment (ECEG), being
held at the Faculty of Administration, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia on
the 16-17 June 2011.

The call is open until 25th of November 2010.

As governments seek to remodel and restyle their services, e-Government continues to
arouse interest and attention. New dynamic issues such as e-democracy, e-citizenship,
e-Identity and e-voting have become core elements in the development of public sector
delivery. The multi-tier nature of e-Government, relevant at local government, central
government but also at the supranational level such as the European Union, makes it of
importance to academics and practitioners alike. Vital questions are posed which link
technological  development and a streamlining of government services to more social
based values of inclusion, accessibility and power relationship ratios

e-Government encompasses more than just technology – it challenges the way in which
public sector service providers and citizens interact. Democratic renewal, the
transformation of service delivery, community leadership and citizenship integration are
all key elements of this fascinating subject. e-Governemnt is tightly related to legal,
economical and organisational fields and as such holds a strong interdisciplinary status.

The conference committee welcomes contributions on a wide range of topics using a range
of scholarly approaches including theoretical and empirical papers employing
qualitative, quantitative and critical methods. Case studies and
work-in-progress/posters are welcomed approaches. PhD Research, proposals for roundtable
discussions, non-academic contributions and product demonstrations based on the main
themes are also invited. A full call for papers, including how to submit can be found at:
