Abstract
Background and Aim: Citizenship rights are considered as a social status in the attitude towards civil society. In order to achieve the goals of citizenship rights, in addition to the general will of society and all citizens, the will of government officials and institutions on economy, culture and politics and implement existing laws, is needed. Therefore, one of the components of achieving the goals of citizenship rights is the creation of e-government. E-government is considered as one of the most important goals and aspirations resulting from information technology, improving efficiency at the national, regional and local levels of the public sector and facilitating the provision of services to the people, reducing costs, and can provide economic, social, cultural and political development. Therefore, e-government is recognized as one of the top priorities of governments around the world.
Materials and Methods: The method used in this study is descriptive-analytical and using library resources.
Findings: In order to achieve the goals of citizenship rights and facilitate the provision of services to citizens, the establishment of e-government is a great importance. On the other hand, in order to achieve the goals of citizenship rights, just, as the obedience of citizens is important in practice, citizens must also participate in governance. It is in this context that citizenship rights are accepted and recognized.
Ethical Considerations: The issues related to ethics in this research and fidelity in quoting the texts and references of the article have been fully observed.
Conclusion: E-government is effective in the realization of citizenship rights and the implementation of good governance indicators through components such as freedom of information, participation and oversight. E-government has the potential to improve the way the government works internally and how it provides services to citizens. E-government has many benefits in the realization of citizenship rights, some of which require regular planning. so it is important to conduct extensive and detailed research on the obstacles that e-government faces in the realization of citizenship rights.
