Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 24 page report
discusses the ideals and goals of democratic accountability in
relationship to the ongoing development of electronic process in

of other applications of which the average American knows little.
That means that issues of accountability must be carefully
addressed in terms of the acceptance and implementation of
further efforts to change the government of the USA to that of
the “e-USA.” Bibliography lists 15 sources.
