Abstract

The first objective of this paper is to map the evolution of the determinants of e-government (EGOV) in EU countries from 2012 to 2022 through descriptive statistics and cluster analysis, and to assess the impact of EGOV development on economic growth. The second objective is to explore the specific challenges of EGOV implementation in Slovakia through a questionnaire survey. Through cluster analysis, we identified the position of countries based on similarities in individual indicators and evaluated the development when comparing 2012 to 2022. In the regression model, the independent variables, Control of Corruption and Telecommunication Infrastructure Index, had the greatest impact on economic development. Regarding Slovakia, which did not experience a significant improvement in the individual variables over the chosen 10-year period, we identified technical problems as the core barrier to EGOV implementation.
