*AMCIS 2017 Call for Papers: E-Government Mini-Track - From Implementation to Adoption: Challenges to Successful E-Government Diffusion*

Although, nearly two decades have passed since e-government efforts began, and much research has been undertaken in the field, adoption and diffusion still remains a major challenge for many governments. From a demand perspective, extensive efforts are required to increase citizens' awareness about the transformation of the delivery of government services and their online availability. In order to prevent digital divide in terms of using e-government services, it is also necessary that citizens from all segments of society are equipped with basic ICT skills as well as private and or public access to high speed internet connections. The above-mentioned issues may seem obvious; nonetheless, we believe that they are critical challenges to various governments' plans for diffusion as well as citizens' adoption of e-government services. Subsequently, there are also many technical, organizational, managerial and socio-economic challenges for successful implementation and adoption of e-government, which needs attention from various stakeholders including researchers and policy makers. The aim of this mini-track is to provide a common platform for discussion and presentation of original research highlighting issues related with technical, organizational, managerial, socioeconomic and policy related aspects of e-government implementation and adoption from both the government and citizen's perspective.

The mini-track particularly seeks papers covering the following areas:

- The development, implementation, control and maintenance of e-government and Transformational government projects. - Different process, information systems and technology integration approaches used in e-government and t-government projects - Enterprise architecture at various levels of government - IT-Governance, integrated service delivery and reengineering of the public sector - Barriers to awareness, adoption and diffusion of e-government services - Evaluation of implementation case studies - Technology alignments in e-government and t-government - Innovative applications and best practices in e-government and t-government - Overview studies; development within countries, policies, infrastructure facilities and comparative studies (comparing countries) - Role of high-speed internet in encouraging adoption and diffusion of e-government services - Role of socio-economic determinants in encouraging adoption and diffusion of e-government services - Policy and strategy to create and disseminate successful e-government services - Studies on e-Inclusion, e-participation and digital divide

Best papers from the mini-track will be invited to submit extended papers to be considered for publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Electronic Government Research (IJEGR)
