Examining the global influence of e-governance on corruption: a panel data analysis

This study analyzes the impact of e-governance on corruption using a panel dataset comprising 110 countries over the period from 2003 to 2021. The specific focus of the research is on the relationship between the E-government Development Index (EGDI) and its four components, namely the Online Service Index (OSI), Human Capital Index (HCI), Telecommunication Infrastructure Index (TII), and E-Participation Index (EPI), and their effects on the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI). To examine these relationships, the empirical analysis employs a fixed effect model, which is a suitable statistical approach for panel data analysis. The findings of the study reveal significant negative associations between the EGDI, OSI, HCI, and TII with corruption levels across countries worldwide. This implies that higher levels of e-government development, online service provision, human capital, and telecommunication infrastructure are associated with lower corruption perceptions. However, the EPI does not demonstrate a statistically significant relationship with the CPI. Based on these results, the paper provides recommendations for governments to prioritize two key areas. Firstly, governments should invest in the development of e-government infrastructure to enhance transparency, accountability, and efficiency in public administration, thereby reducing corruption. Secondly, initiatives aimed at enhancing public awareness and understanding of e-governance should be prioritized, as they contribute to increased citizen engagement and participation, which can ultimately lead to improved governance practices and reduced corruption levels.

The Role of Public Management in the Achievement of Sustainable Development Goals

Public management plays a crucial role in promoting sustainable development goals (SDGs). Efficient public administration is crucial in attaining the SDGs as countries address challenging matters such as poverty, gender equality, climate change, environmental degradation, healthcare, quality education and affordable energy. While there is a global dedication to achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs), the importance of public administration in effectively addressing intricate sustainable development difficulties remains a significant concern. Government policies and programs ought to be implemented by the public administration. Nevertheless, numerous obstacles hinder the implementation and integration of the SDGs in public management systems that promote public interest and ensure equality, representation and responsiveness to citizens. The research design employed was a phenomenological approach, seeking to assess the role of public management by uncovering the experiences of individuals involved in sustainable development. To achieve a better coverage of the population within the sample, a stratified random sampling method was employed. The target demographic included public managers, policymakers, and other stakeholders. Stratification ensures that stakeholder groups are represented in proportion to their importance. The findings suggest that although sustainable development goals have been included in public management practices, there is a need to enhance their alignment across all dimensions. The formulation and implementation of policies strongly influenced the progress made towards achieving sustainable development goals. These recent discoveries not only enhance our comprehension of the role of public management in attaining sustainable development goals, but they also provide policymakers and practitioners with a clear direction.

KONCEPT “SMART REGULATION” U EVROPSKOJ UNIJI I REFORMA JAVNE UPRAVE U BOSNI I HERCEGOVINI / SMART REGULATION CONCEPT IN EUROPEAN UNION AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Public administration reform in Bosnia and Herzegovina began in 2003 and has been implemented in a structured manner since 2006. Bosnia and Herzegovina has been on the path to European integration since February 2016. In this regard, public administration reform is defined as one of 14 key priorities, and it implies a more efficient, effective, accountable and transparent public administration, citizen-oriented and ready to meet all European requirements. Given the complex administrative arrangement of the state, public administration reform is quite slow. The aim of this paper is to present the efforts made so far by the European Union in terms of preparing Bosnia and Herzegovina for the status of a candidate country, and then the EU member states in terms of achieving the greatest possible harmonization of regulations. In order to later harmonize legislation with the acquis communautaire. This paper deals with the issue of public administration reform in Bosnia and Herzegovina in connection with the concept of Smart Regulation in the European Union, which includes a set of basic principles that can be directly related to public administration reform, and which has developed in parallel in the European Union. Considering the EU's efforts so far in the process of public administration reform and the concept of Smart Regulation would create a more complete picture of the connection between the reform process and the concept that is futuristic for Bosnia and Herzegovina, given that it applies to member states.

Hierarchical Clustering of the European Countries from the Perspective of E-government, E-participation, and Human Development

Abstract The information society offers governments the opportunity to work closer with citizens and companies, to respond better to their requirements, and to create the conditions for the functioning of a modern, efficient, and democratic public administration. Due to the development of the information society, e-governance and e-participation appeared and developed, through which the communication of governments with stakeholders became more straightforward and less expensive. This research aims to identify and analyse comparatively how the telecommunications infrastructure and Internet users influenced the expansion and diversification of e- government and e-participation that contributed to the human development index in the EU states in 2010-2022. In the longitudinal data analysis, we apply fixed and random estimators to see the most critical determinants of the human development index. In the second part, we cluster the 27 EU countries in four clusters by Ward’s hierarchical algorithm. The hierarchical clustering emphasised that there is still a digital divide among EU countries. The digital divide occurs because of the lack of Internet access of the population from marginalised communities of European countries, resulting in socio-economic disparities. Therefore, some EU states should have initiatives to bridge the gap to digital technologies. The research results are essential for those governments coordinating the policies and the entire process of integrating information technologies and dedicated e-government and e-participation applications in central and local administration.
