An Actor-Network Theory (ANT) approach to Turkish e-government gateway initiative

• There are various models proposed in the literature to analyze trajectories of eGovernment projects in terms of success and failure. Yet, only the Actor-Network Theory (ANT) perspective (Heeks and Stanforth, 2007) considers the interaction factors among network actors and actants. This paper proposes the ANT for approaching to the Turkish e-Government Gateway initiative as a case study. In doing so, it provides valuable insight in terms of both local and global actornetworks which surround the initiative.
