ArticlePublisher: 2002Governmnet Information Quarterly 19, 4, p. 357-368Abstract: This paper examines how Constitutional principles, specifically the doctrines of Federalism and the separation of powers, relate to e-government policies and practices. Federalism and the separation of powers are essential elements of the Constitution and instrumental parts of the foundation of the government of the United States. This paper suggests that the move toward e-government, emphasizing the simplification of access to and the horizontal and vertical integration of government information and services, must be considered with regard to the doctrines of Federalism and the separation of powers. Finally, this paper offers recommendations of ways in which e-government can be implemented to minimize potential Constitutional problems by suggesting concepts that should be a part of all Federal e-government laws, guidelines, and policies
