The e-Government cluster studies the use and the building of information systems in public organizations, where normal market governance is the dominant form of organizing.

Subtopics in the field include, but are not limited to:

• delivery of public services
• governance of public services, under the impact of information systems
• e-democracy

A subtopic in the area is that of e-health, having a very strong or even dominant role of public services in any country. E-health contains also well-being in a wider meaning, as well as social services.

Information systems are also always a component in the study, pure medical research is not an ERCIS activity.
