REALITIES AND PERSPECTIVES OF DEVELOPMENT OF EGOVERNMENT IN THE KAZAKHSTAN

Abstract

In this paper we consider the history, realities and prospects of development of e- government in Kazakhstan. Philosophy of e-government and e-democracy in Kazakhstan is to provide extensive information about current state (updates) processes in the country, in the implementation of government services on-line, as well as to empower citizens to participate in state governance (or public administration). Processes of formation and development of e-democracy, in particular e- government are going all over the world, including Kazakhstan. This is due to the current trends of development of post-industrial society based on information and communication technologies. This paper discusses the existing theories of the information society, defines the difference between the concepts of e-government and e-democracy, as well as the realities and prospects of development of e- government in Kazakhstan
