E-GOVERNMENT: WAY OF MODERNIZATION AND EFFICIENCY ENHANCEMENT OF PUBLIC GOVERNANCE

Introduction. The article focuses on the problem of modernizing public governance through integration of e-government into the public governance system of the Russian Federation. Conceptual and legal basis of e-government, key areas for modernizing and improving the public governance through information technology, and the e-government infrastructure are examined. The experience of implementing e-government in the Russian Federation over the past decade shows that the principles of the Western model cannot be fully applied in the country. In addition, among the political, social and economic issues related to implementation of e-government in Russia, there are those that sometimes complicate the use of e-government in our country to the fullest. However, tremendous work has been done to integrate key e-government solutions into the system of public governance. The analytical, methodological and organizational work has already significantly improved the efficiency of public governance, through the implementation of innovative approaches. Many of the target indicators have already been achieved, a number of others in the short term will reach the levels defined in regulatory legal acts.

Theoretical Background. The main theoretical methods of the present study are the plan-fact comparative analysis of transformation of public governance based on digitalization, identification and resolution of the contradiction related to the integration of information-communication technologies in public governance system. We initiate a broad discussion of the evolution of administrative models from conventional to digital platform in the Russian Federation. We will consider the current stage of development of public administration systems, its levels, capabilities and methods through the prism of: - technological dimensions of e-government;

-          pitfalls of the digitalization of public governance;

-          - challenges to the public governance in the future.

In a world characterized by rapid changes which are caused by globalization, the knowledge economy creates opportunities for both the society and the state.

Results. The arguments for improvement of public governance for citizens led governments of different countries to the need to develop the information society based on the core infrastructure – the e-government. It is uneven but objective process.

Discussion. The trend of reforming and modernizing the system of public governance began to rise in many countries. The performance of the state's activities can be measured by the quantity and quality of the goods and services provided for its citizens. Many countries around the world are striving to revive the new system of public governance, based on the principles of proactivity, transparency, accountability and efficiency. In order to meet these goals, governments are implementing innovations into their organizational structures, strategies and plans and their methods of using human, information, technological and financial resources.
