 Abstract

E-government research is currently at a stage of consolidation and new orientation. Smaller steps of government modernization have in part been successfully implemented; larger ones still lie ahead of us. Within an EC funded project, a roadmap for egovernment is being defined. Thereby, scenario building about the future is being used to grasp pictures of the future. From these future scenarios, research actions shall be derived. In this paper we present the results of the scenario building workshops in four regions for e-government in the year 2020. In total 15 scenarios were developed shaping aspects of different dimensions of alternative futures. A wide range of topics were addressed, varying from interoperability, division of power, corruption, cyber war to changing democratic systems, religious activities, participations and the role of individualisms in society. Next steps are to assess the scenario results in respect to the current EC agenda and to derive from there actions of research in order to ensure that desired futures will come true and that unwanted futures are being avoided.
