Abstract

This article focuses on the potential of instigating an e-government system within and possibly throughout the Arab world. E-government is currently being adopted in many countries throughout the world to bring more information and at a greater facility to their citizens. Despite its advantages, we analyze the problems and difficulties encountered in promoting the concept of e-government in the Middle East and also highlight the potential opportunities. These prospects are evaluated, along with the adoption of the technology to render advantages to the Arab world. Many countries have and continue to benefit from the acceptance of e-government; understanding its applicability and effectiveness beyond and within the Arab countries is of vital importance to increase and promote its use. Our analysis presents a perspective on regional e-government and utilization of technology within and among Arab countries. We also propose the E-Government System Framework that solves many problems associated with the adoption of e-government in the Arab world
