Abstract
Acknowledging the necessity of utilizing the new electronics, information and communication technologies the movement toward implementation of e-government in Iran has recently received the attention of the authorities and policy makers. Achieving this end needs first providing a clear definition for e-government in Iran, to encompass its specific cultural, social and political characteristics, and also its actual and potential grounds for science and technology. It is argued that Government to Government (G-to-G) as a major part of the e- government consists of various components including the Government Electronic Administration (GEA) which will provide foundation required to monitor and support G-to-G system in particular and to enhance the capacity of government policy making in general. This paper addresses the efforts made toward development and implementation of Iran’s GEA, the experiences gained, and the visions and views on its future developments.
