Experience in the Development of the Electronic Government of Estonia and the Possibility of its Application in the Russian Federation
( Pp. 190-198)

The purpose of the study. The article is devoted to the complex characteristics of the institution of the so-called electronic government in Estonia and the possibilities of its «import» into the Russian Federation. The interest in Estonia's experience stems from the fact that it occupies one of the highest places among all countries in the world that develop e-government institutions. Although Russia has already achieved some success in this direction, it still has very large reserves. The development of digitalization of public services will allow in the future to dramatically reduce bureaucratic barriers and find new opportunities for the formation of civil society. The introduction of the e-passport, which will begin in 2021, is an important step for Russia towards e-government, following the example of Estonia. Results. The article discusses the points of view of both domestic and foreign scientists regarding the concept of «electronic government». The results of the calculation of the e-government index carried out by the UN are analyzed. The stages of implementation of e-government in Estonia, starting with the appearance of the «Principles of Estonian Information Policy» (1994), are considered. Studied the Estonian experience in the development of electronic government and the possibility of its application in Russia. Conclusions are made about the existing problems in the development of electronic government in Russia and possible ways to overcome these problems are proposed.
