The conference belongs to the 27th DEXA Conference Series. TheinternationalconferencecycleEGOVISfocusesoninformationsystemsandICT aspects of e-government. Information systems are a core enabler for e-government/ governance in all its dimensions: e-administration, e-democracy, e-participation, and e-voting. EGOVIS 2016 brought together experts from academia, public administra- tions,andindustrytodiscusse-governmentande-democracyfromdifferentperspectives anddisciplines,i.e.,technology,policyand/orgovernance,andpublicadministration. The Program Committee accepted 22 papers from recent research fields such as opendataandgovernmentcloud,identitymanagementande-governmentarchitectures, innovation, open government, intelligent systems, and semantic technologies applica- tions. Beyond theoretical contributions, papers cover e-government experiences from all over the world; cases are presented from Europe and South America. These proceedings are organized into eight sections according to the conference sessions. We were honored that the keynote speeches, hosted this year by EGOVIS, were given by three leaders in the e-government field from academia and the public sector: Prof. Ronald Traunmuller of the University of Linz, one of the pioneers in e-govern- ment studies, discussed the information system perspective in e-government research and development. Attila Péterfalvi, President of the National Authority for Data Pro- tectionandFreedomofInformationinHungary,gaveanoverviewofthetransparency of public functions and public funds in Hungary. Finally, Prof. András Gábor from Corvinus University in Budapest addressed the problem of security governance, in particular for public sector services with regard to the social components of trust. The chairs of the Program Committee wish to thank all the reviewers for their valuablework;thereviewsraisedseveralresearchquestionsthatwerediscussedatthe conference. We would like to thank Gabriela Wagner for the administrative support and assisting us in the scheduling.

As clearly stated by the Hungarian Constitutional Court: ‘without beingmonitoredbyitscitizens,thestatebecomesanunaccountableandunpre- dictable machine, and this is especially dangerous because a non-transparent staterepresentsanincreasedthreattoconstitutionalrights’. Thefreedomofinformationisoneofthemostsensitiverightsinademocracy,because the political forces always would like to follow their own trend to communicate their vicesandvirtues.Inoppositiontheyurgealargerpublicity,whereasasgoverningforce they prefer to communicate according to their own perceptions. Since the constitutional revolution of 1989, there were two governmental periods when the legislation opened more transparency on national assets: the first one was in 2003whentheleft-wingcoalitionadoptedthe“GlasspocketLaw”,thesecondonewas the right-wing coalition in 2012, when by the constitutional revolution, the Funda- mental Law itself decrees the transparency on national assets. The new Hungarian Fundamental Law in its preamble – called NATIONAL COMMITMENT AND BELIEF – proclaims that “true democracy exists only where the State serves it citizens and administers their affairs justly and without abuse or bias”. InHungarythefundamentalrightoffreedomofinformationhastoreacttothenew/ oldfunctionsoftheState.ThewidespreadofStateOwned Enterprises (SOEs)gavea newperspectiveofpublicityofdatainconnectionoffinancialdataoftheseenterprises. OnonehandthelegislationwidenedtheFOIwiththenewconstitution,whatgives a quite strong basis offreedom of information: – firstofall,theFundamentalLawdeclarestherighttoknowasafundamentalright, – in addition, it creates the national constitutional foundations of transparency of public funds, of public property. Till nowadays SOEs fall under the more or less the same transparency regulations as public bodies. According to the 2007 CVI Act on State Ownership, the State may acquire(or disposeof)assetsinorderto:(1)executeStatefunctions;(2)fulfilsocietal needs; and (3) realise government economic policy goals. In practice, some rationales for state ownership that have been put forward, in addition to the “general public interest” have included energy security, delivering country-wide, affordable mail
