Volume 19: Public Administration in the Information Age: Revisited
Abstract

Colin Smith's 1998 chapter on the British political parties' uptake of new information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the handbook on public administration in an information age represents at present one of the more important pioneer works in the domain and delineated some of the major research questions. Based on a review of the research stock in the field of political parties and new ICTs, this chapter demonstrates that many of Smith's original thoughts still are valid despite the advent of new social networking technology.
