As one of Europe's leaders in modernising government through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), France offers an opportunity to investigate how the use of Open Source software contributes to the process of improving government performance. This paper examines the extent to which the French government accepts Open Source solutions as part of its use of ICT to support e-democracy through government operations. This study bases its investigation on interviews of more than 100 program and ICT officials responsible for running or supporting government programs in France.

E-government and e-democracy constitute a central theme in information society policy at all levels: local, regional, national, European and even globally. To this direction, a variety of efforts have been made, and many systems have been developed. This paper proposes a methodology for designing and implementing web-based services that can support e-democracy practices. Furthermore, the paper presents and describes the effort made by a Greek political party to this direction, for the design and development of a unified framework for providing, supporting and managing e-democracy services. The paper describes the actions taken and the work done according to the proposed methodology.

Increased citizen participation is a core element of both Web 2.0 applications and the concept(s) of e-democracy. This paper proposes a prospective view of how the Web 2.0 can be used in the context of e-democracy. After a review of both concepts, the main perceptions of internet users concerning their political activity on the internet are highlighted by an online survey realised in January-March 2007. Various Web 2.0 applications are then discussed in the light of VEDELs axis – information, discussion and decision-making – in order to identify how they may enhance the implication of citizens in the political process through the internet.
