Abstract

The goal of this study is to deepen the reflections on discursive articulations, aiming at the significance of E-government in Cape Verde, under the perspective of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe’s Discourse Theory. We carry out an instrumental case study and use the retroduction method proposed by Glynos and Howarth. The results show that a convergence began to be built between the discourses of the Government, NOSI and the citizens, in the sense of mobilizing efforts aimed at the attribution of an electronic configuration to all public services in that country.
