The demographic transition of falling fertility and mortality can provide countries with one generation that is proportionately bigger than the previous and following ones.

E-government is a trend to offer public services online. A common assumption, at least by governments, is that it not only saves costs and time, but that it eases interaction and puts more decisive power into citizensʼ hands.
