Features: Economic Analysis and Evaluation of E-Government Benefits The author of this book took the quantitative evaluation of e-government benefits as his postdoctoral research topic. From an economic perspective, he explores the supply and demand of e-government, based on microeconomic theories such as the theory of demand, firm theory, consumer surplus theory, and welfare economics theory. Under certain assumptions, he constructs a new logical system for evaluating e-government benefits, covering non-market value assessment, production functions, consumer surplus, and effective scale, reflecting the theoretical courage of a young scholar who dares to explore and innovate. By evaluating consumer willingness to pay, the contribution of maturity to government output, changes in social welfare, and the optimal investment scale, he establishes a theoretical framework for the overall evaluation of e-government benefits from a quantitative perspective, thus achieving a breakthrough and innovation in the theoretical research of e-government benefits.
