From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Journal of Information Technology & Politics or JITP, formerly the Journal of E-Government, will publish its inaugural issue in the fall of 2007. Since 2005, the publisher, The Haworth Press, has been affiliated with the organized section on Information Technology & Politics (ITP) of the American Political Science Association (APSA). At the September 2006 ITP business meeting, the section voted to adopt JITP on a trial basis starting with the first issue. At the 2008 business meeting, the members of ITP will vote on whether to make it the official journal of APSA's ITP section.
