Paper Abstract:
|
A citizen is an active member of a community or society provided with rights and duties conferred by that community. In
the Information Society and the World Wide Web context the citizen becomes an e-Citizen The creation of an e-
Democracy system will allow citizens to participate more actively in politics, subsequently bringing greater clarity to the
decision-making process of their elected political representatives and taking part to local government's activities through
online tools, or using the Internet for expressing their opinion or suggesting new important initiatives. On the other side,
citizens will have the opportunity to access any kind of information of interest for them at a convenient time and place
through websites which are rich of updated and relevant information. |
