Abstract

This paper analyzes the impact of the adoption of an information system on the consolidation process of a fully democratic system for eastern European countries. The interactions between the adoption of e-management policies and democracy are examined as a strategic approach to managing future, dynamic organizations. Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analyses (fsQCA) were conducted to assess the combined effect of the conditions. The fsQCA analysis considered a sample of 26 case studies of eastern European countries with post-communist, in transition regimes as the unit of analysis.
