自 1997 年以来，英国政府推出了一系列举措，统称为地方政府现代化议程。这可以被视为改变英国地方当局的结构和绩效的尝试。 2000 年启动了一系列并行举措，即电子政府议程，并试图在地方政府内部扩大信息和通信技术 (ICT) 的使用。本文描述了两个议程的背景和主题，目的是描述地方政府内部信息通信技术创新与地方政府现代化之间现有的和可能的动态关系。本文对 22 个威尔士单一当局的电子政府战略进行了分析，并利用该分析来强调与英国电子地方政府议程进展相关的一些问题。本文最后呼吁对该领域进行纵向调查。
An array of UK government initiatives have been launched since 1997, collectively being known as the local government modernization agenda. This can be seen as an attempt to transform the structures and performance of local authorities in the UK. A parallel set of initiatives, the electronic government agenda, were launched in 2000 and have attempted to extend the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) within local government. This paper describes the context for and themes within both agendas, the aim being to describe the existing and likely dynamics of the relationship between innovations in ICTs within local government and the modernization of local government. The paper presents an analysis of the electronic government strategies of 22 Welsh unitary authorities and uses this analysis for highlighting a number of issues relating to the progress of the electronic local government agenda within the UK. The paper concludes with a call for longitudinal investigation in this area.
