Anna Aleksandrovna Aletdinova, Maxim S. Kravchenko, Maxim Bakaev · 2016
E-government is a new form of interaction between the governmental and administrative bodies, as well as with organizations and citizens. Its further development is related to initiative of the society members in promoting their ideas and projects, which may be placed on dedicated e-government Internet portals or with respective commercial services. In our paper we analyze the conceptual foundations of crowdsourcing and its actual development in Russia, mostly in relation to socially important projects. Particularly, we specify the process models for managing different types of crowdsourcing projects and provide historical data on their funding and success rates. We also identify factors that are most significant for crowdsourcing projects to achieve their final goals. Finally, to increase the effectiveness of crowdsourcing within e-government infrastructure, we propose to create the unified system joining several individual platforms and e-receptions, to compensate for certain existing deficiencies in social projects promotion technologies.
