Description
Summary:The goal of this study was to check the direct and moderating effects of the dimensions of the national culture, based on the Cultural Dimensions Theory, about the offer of E-Government services. The direct effect of the technological infrastructure installed in the countries on their E-Government levels was also tested. Data from 55 countries were analyzed and indicated technological infrastructure and individualism are direct antecedents of E-Government. This research shows policymakers and practitioners should prioritize the enhancement of technological infrastructure and consider the cultural orientation of individualism in their strategies to promote the adoption and efficiency of E-Government services.
