Abstract
Following the literature on e-government, political theory and political participation, this paper addresses some of the consequences of the development of e-government initiatives for the democratization of governance in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. Applying survey methodology and bivariate and multivariate analysis techniques, we find that the interaction of e-government initiatives with the digital gap impede the potential democratizing effects of e-government efforts.Copyright Notice:
