摘要：

This paper estimates the impact of e-government on the "control of corruption" indicator using a panel of 149 countries with two time observations (t = 1996, 2006). The first differenced estimator yields a positive and economically interesting effect. By the most conservative estimate, moving from the 10th percentile to the 90th percentile in the e-government distribution implies a reduction in corruption equivalent to moving from the 10th percentile to the 23rd percentile in the control of corruption distribution. Invoking external instruments, IV results are (statistically) similar. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
