View Vol. 16 No. 3 (2024): Special Issue e-Vote Conference

This special issue marks the first of its kind in the E-Vote-ID conference series featured in the eJournal of eDemocracy and Open Government (JeDEM). It presents six papers, with the first four being extended versions of works initially accepted at the 2023 E-Vote-ID Conference. These papers explore topics such as the transparency of internet voting, trust and distrust in election technologies, their administration by electoral management bodies, and discussions on risks, perceptions and mitigation strategies. Additionally, the issue includes two papers closely related to the conference's themes: one examining voter opinions on internet voting in France and the other addressing e-government frameworks within the context of Industrial Revolution 4.0 technologies. The aim of this special issue is to provide insights into two decades of e-voting practices, supported by empirical research on governance, elections, and hands-on experiences with e-voting and digital election technologies.
