[Paul Henman]

Dear AoIRers

Please pass onto people interested in doing a phd in the following project:

Government Web Portals as New Government Actors
Government web portals provide the entryway to online government, yet their effectiveness and role in contemporary government is unknown. This study examines the architectures, rationales, effectiveness and power effects of government web portals. The study uses new digital research methods (hyperlink network analysis and web experiments) to comparatively assess 10 hi-tech countries.
