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, we 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, we propose the measuring and monitoring index for the electronic governance development; and at last, we perform Pearson’s correlation test to verify the correlation between electronic governance and the indexes of both economic and social development. When comparing the results of the correlation and the percentage of the implemented practices, we conclude that the State with the highest GDP, the highest HDI and the lowest Gini, are the ones with the highest number of implemented electronic governance practices.
