Challenges of Implementing e-government in Iraq

Abstract

The goal of the research is determined to know the limits of the application of e-government in Iraq and the technical and legal challenges that it faces or may encounter at the present time and into the future, while explaining ways to overcome these challenges as a way to promote an effective electronic government.

On the basis of the descriptive and functional approach, the research axes were distributed into three main sections, the first of which introduces e-government and its goals, while the second deals with the requirements for achieving it and the mechanisms for its implementation in Iraq, leading to the third section that includes the most important technical and legal challenges that obstruct the implementation of the e-government experience in Iraq. At the conclusion of the research, a pivotal result was reached that constitutes the research hypothesis that the most important obstacle to the implementation of e-government in Iraq lies in the absence of the true will and serious planning to follow this path and does not fall in the aspect of the technical and material requirements for its completion. God grants success
