The reform resulted in the successful installation of the most advanced e-government infrastructure. The talk explores factors that contributed to the rapid growth of e-government in Russia and points at the emerging paradox: while e-government improves the quality of public services, could it also foster civic engagement and participation in the Russian context?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"http:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov.jpg\" alt=\"Febraury 3 Mikhail Zherebtsov\" class=\"wp-image-7324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov.jpg 960w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov-160x120.jpg 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov-240x180.jpg 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eurus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/186\/Febraury-3-Mikhail-Zherebtsov-360x270.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mikhail Zherebtsov<\/strong> is a postdoctoral fellow from Moscow State University and Carleton University.
