E-merging for E-Government : Citizen Orientation, Policy Making, Local Governance and ICT Use

In Turkey, the Information Society Strategy and Action Plans I (2006-2010) and II (2015-2018) prepared by the Ministry of Development pave the way for a knowledge-based and ICT-supported knowledge society. To increase awareness in the society, a series of conferences were organized between 2009 and 2012. This book complements the articles presented in these terms, which are available by a selection of articles that were not openly accessible previously. The resulting book brings together selected works of internationally-reputed academicians and practitioners, merging different e-merging perspectives on e-Government that signify citizen orientation, policy making, local governance and ICT use. This book will further the e-government dissemination and diffusion efforts revitalized with the new Information Society Strategy and Action Plan.
