Abstract
E­Government  implementations  are nowadays  common  even amongst the smallest and 
countries  around the world. The challenge of building such systems  is  even  greater for developing 
countries, in particular those who are struggling against considerable penetration of the Digital Divide
in their society. This paper proposes a theoretical framework for implementing e­Government in the
Maldives, a small country aiming to overcome the difficulties of offering twenty­first century services 
to a small by widely dispersed population. The particular interest in the case of the Maldives is that 
the technological infrastructure is sensitive and dependent on external condition, while there is wide
chasm in society due to the effects of the Digital Divide.
