Abstract

The general objective of this work is to identify a set of electronic governance practices for the executive power of the Brazilian States and Federal District, to measure and relate them to the economic and social development of the respective States and Federal District. In order to achieve this objective, the authors first used bibliographic research to build the theoretical platform about electronic governance and controllership in public management and the identification of electronic governance practices; next, a measurement and monitoring index of the development of electronic governance – 2013 is proposed. The Pearson correlation test was performed in order to verify the correlation between electronic governance and economic and social development indexes – GDP AND GDP per capita – and HDI and Gini, respectively. Lastly, the 2009 electronic governance index was used for comparison purposes. By comparing the results of the correlation and the percentage of the implemented practices, it was then concluded that the States with the highest GDP, the highest HDI and the lowest Gini are those which have the highest number of implemented electronic governance practices.
