Abstract

Pacific Island countries (PICs) are facing certain unique challenges in e-government diffusion due to their geographic, cultural, social, and economic environments.
However, very few rigorous empirical studies have been published about e-government diffusion issues in the region. To address the knowledge gap, we conducted a case study of Fiji. Drawing on Fountain’s technology enactment framework as a theoretical lens, we identified and investigated in a holistic and integrative way the
major issues and challenges which influenced e-government diffusion and outcomes in Fiji. The study has significant implications both for research and practices not only
in Fiji but also in the PICs.
