It is a great honor for all of us to continue our journey that we started five years ago without interruption. As the digital world grows every day and every second, new developments and new technologies emerge, we are trying to read and understand this area within our limitations. This volume deals with a number of topics ranging from cyber-state, US and EU cybersecurity, cyber politics vision documents for political parties, usage of technology in combat against Covid-19 to the usage of body chips. There are also rich content in this issue and research that will increase the question marks in our minds. But in this brief discussion, I would like to discuss the impact of cyberspace on dictatorship. The concepts of digitalization, cyber, cyberspace or cyber technology, which are largely identified with the internet, have been used extensively in almost every field from social vii sciences, natural science, medicine to computer science. Cyber technology, which is getting popular day by day, is in essence neither good nor bad. Like every vehicle, good results can be obtained if used for good, and bad results can be obtained if used for evil. Therefore, cyber technology can be used as a tool to consolidate democracy in the political sphere, or it can be used to deepen the dictatorship or to create a surveillance society. In the early days, the Internet was perceived as a means of liberation, democratization, transparency, freedom of expression and an open society. Opening the millions of documents from war crimes to censorship, secret deals to perception operations by Wikileaks and the Snowden case, which deciphered the online intelligence activities of different countries, especially the USA and the UK, and the positive role played by the social media in the Arab Spring had fed this perception. Internet was a beautiful tool that empowered the individual, compelled administrations to be transparent and served the open society. Was there an open society utopia that Democrats had dreamed of for centuries? Global optimism in this regard 2020 gave hope to the masses. But over time, this optimistic perception has weakened, and almost the Internet has become a broader means of cyber surveillance. Summer Cyberpolitik Journal Vol. 5, No. 9 www.cyberpolitikjournal.org ISSN: 2587-1218 With the proliferation of (in)cybersecurity activities and studies, it was realized that this journey also extends to a dystopia at the same time. In short, while dreams were an open society, the reality pointed to dystopia. Online intelligence activities, the fact that the right to private life can be easily violated, censorship, restriction of freedom of expression with a click of a button, the formation of a surveillance society rather than an open society has prompted political scientists to ask different questions and new concerns. Today, 85% of online intelligence activities are carried out by state bodies to monitor societies. Only 8% is done for commercial purposes and the remaining 7% is for different purposes such as entertainment, theft, etc. Indeed, considering the adware coming to your phones is a small proportion of the intelligence activities performed, the dimensions of online surveillance will be better understood. Second, you need to forget the principle of privacy when connected to the Internet. Nothing can be secretly done on the Internet.

  • Technopopulism: the Emergence of a Discursive Formation
    tripleC 15(2): 441-458, 2017 http://www.triple-c.at Technopopulism: The Emergence of a Discursive Formation Marco Deseriis Northeastern University, Boston, USA, [email protected], http://neu.academia.edu/MarcoDeseriis Abstract: This article contends that technopopulism is a discursive formation that emerges from the convergence of two preexisting discourses: populism and technolibertarianism. Whereas these discourses are historically distinct the 2008 financial crisis and the 2011 wave of struggles precipitated the political conditions for their intersection. Such convergence produces both tensions and possibilities. On the one hand, technopopulism engenders a radically participatory model of democracy, which is ultimately anti-institutional as citizens cooperate and engage in sophisticated decision-making without the mediation of professional politicians. On the other hand, the more electorally successful technopopulist parties are led by charismatic leaders who synthesize the positions that emerge from the netroots to mobi- lize them against the establishment. These two seemingly contradictory aspects precipitate in two variants of technopopulism: a leaderless-technocratic variant, which is derived from the open source mode of governance and from early experiments of the Global Justice Movement in networked self-government; and a leaderist-populist variant, which is more strictly focused on the electoral competition as an intrinsically hegemonic practice. The article concludes with a reflection on the discursive complementarity of these two variants. Keywords: technopopulism, technolibertarianism, populism, electronic democracy, social media activism, Global Justice Movement, Free and Open Source Software, Podemos, Five Star Movement, Occupy Technopopulism is the belief that the “government of the people, by the people, for the people” (Lincoln 1953 [1863]) is achievable by means of information communica- tions technology.

  • The Emergence of Noopolitik: Toward an American Information Strategy
    The Emergence of Noopolitik Toward an American Information Strategy John Arquilla David Ronfeldt National Defense Research Institute R FIGURE Three Realms of Information ................... 16 TABLES 1. Information Realms Across Three Levels .......... 17 2. Contrast Between Realpolitik and Noopolitik ....... 47 vii SUMMARY Information and communications have always been important to strategy. But they are changing from subsidiary to singular con- cerns—“information” matters more than ever for reasons that did not exist even 20 years ago. One reason is technological innovation: the growth of a vast new information infrastructure—including not only the Internet, but also cable systems, direct broadcast satellites, cellular phones, etc.—in which the balance is shifting away from one-to-many broadcast media (e.g., traditional radio and television) toward many-to-many interactive media. In many nations a grow- ing, though varied, population is enjoying an ease of entry and access to the new infrastructure for commercial, social, diplomatic, military, and other interactions. This easy access is resulting in a huge in- crease in global interconnectivity. A second reason is the proliferation of new organizations: Vast ar- rays of state and nonstate organizations are emerging that directly concern information and communications issues. A third reason why information and communications have become more important is that “information” and “power” are becoming increasingly inter- twined. Across many political, economic, and military areas, informational “soft power” is taking precedence over traditional, material “hard power.” The new field known as “information strategy” is emerging around two poles, which define opposite ends of a spectrum of security con- cerns. One is an essentially technological pole, that of cyberspace safety and security.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. 1 THE PROSPECTS FOR CYBEROCRACY (REVISITED) David Ronfeldt and Danielle Varda Abstract: The deepening of the information age will alter the nature of the state so thoroughly that something new emerges: cyberocracy . While it is too early to say precisely what a cyberocracy will look like, the outcomes will include new kinds of democratic, totalitarian, and hybrid governments, along with new kinds of state-society relations. Thus, optimism about the information revolution should be tempered by an anticipation of its potential dark side. This paper reiterates the view of the cyberocracy concept as first stated in 1992, and then offers a postscript for 2008. It speculates that information-age societies will develop new sensory apparatuses, a network-based social sector, new modes of networked governance, and ultimately the cybercratic nexus-state as a successor to the nation-state. This is the version of the paper that has been available at www.ssrn.com since January 2009.

  • Cyberocracy As a Social Movement in the New Burma 225 Jurnal Kajian Wilayah, Vol
    Cyberocracy as a Social Movement in The New Burma 225 Jurnal Kajian Wilayah, Vol. 2, No. 2, 2011, Hal. 225-234 © 2011 PSDR LIPI ISSN 2087-2119 Cyberocracy as a Social Movement in The New Burma Amorisa Wiratri Abstrak Cyberocracy adalah istilah �����������������������������������untuk menunjukkan gerakan demokrasi yang menggunakan fasilitas internet. Sepanjang sejarah Burma, Saffron Revolution adalah salah satu peristiwa demonstrasi yang fenomenal. Demonstrasi tersebut dimotori oleh para biarawan yang selama ini tidak pernah menunjukkan pertentangan dengan pemerintah ataupun pihak militer. Demonstrasi ini juga menunjukkan bagaimana interaksi antara aktivitas politik melalui internet dan gerakan nyata di masyarakat berhasil membuahkan sebuah revolusi. Kata kunci: Cyberocracy, internet, Revolusi Saffron, gerakan sosial Background Burma gained its independence from the British on January 4, 1948, (Than, 2005: 3).�������������������������������� The military formally started a coup in 1962, headed by General Ne Win. In the early 1970s, Ne Win introduced the “Four Cuts” policy, which aimed to cut all food, supplies, recruits and intelligence to insurgent groups. This was effectively a scorched-earth policy against villagers in conflict zones (Than, 2005: 3). In 1988, a national pro-democracy uprising forced Ne Win to step down. In response, the military cracked down on the demonstrators, killing an estimated 3000 people throughout the country. Many Burmese student activists fled to ethnic insurgent-held areas in the jungle, where they formed their own pro-democracy organisations, allied with ethnic armies. This event is known as the biggest protest ever in Burma and the protest members are called 88’s generation students. In the 1990 elections, the National League for Democracy (NLD), led by Aung San Suu Kyi, won with a landslide victory.

CHAPTER TWO Communications Revolutions and International Relations CHERIE STEELE AND ARTHUR STEIN Nobody who has paid any attention to the peculiar features of our present era will doubt for a moment that we are liv- ing at a period of [a] most wonderful transition, which tends rapidly to accomplish the great end to which all his- tory points the realisation of the unity of mankind. The distances which separated the different nations and parts of the globe are rapidly vanishing before the achievements of modern invention, and we can traverse them with incredible ease. —The Prince Consort, March 1850 A communications revolution is underway. Without the vast increase in the power of computers, computer software, satellites, fiber-optics cables, and high-speed electronic transfers, markets could not act as one, and economic and other information–politics, ideas, culture, revolutions, consumer trends– could not be delivered instantaneously to the more than 200,000 monitors connected into this global communications system. (Ken- nedy 1993, 50-51) The personal computer and the internet will, we are told, transform eco- nomic, social, and political life, including international relations, by creating new forms of community and interaction not yet imaginable.1 “This new civ- ilization, as it challenges the old, will topple bureaucracies, reduce the role of the nation-state, and give rise to semiautonomous economies in a postimperi- alist world” (Toffler 1980, 10-11).

    From Global Justice to Occupy and Podemos: Mapping Three Stages of Contemporary Activism Special Issue of tripleC: Communication, Capitalism & Critique (http://www.triple-c.at) Edited by Todd Wolfson, Emiliano Treré, Paolo Gerbaudo, Peter Funke1 tripleC 15 (2), 2017, pp. 390-542 1 Please note that the editors appear in reversed alphabetical order, not in order of importance. This special issue represents a collective effort, and all the four editors contributed equally to it. tripleC 15(2): 390-392, 2017 http://www.triple-c.at Multiple Temporalities of the Movements Michael Hardt Duke University, Durham, USA, [email protected] The clocks seem to be running faster these days. A new cycle of struggle explodes on the scene and then in a few short years it seems to have burnt out and passed on to another. Even the recent past quickly fades from view as we speed past. Cycles of struggle used to continue to develop over decades. Think of the waves of slave rebellions that emanated from the Caribbean through much of the 19th century, or the communist agitation in the decades leading up to and following the Soviet 1917, or the anti-colonial revolts throughout the 20th century. Even the explosion of movements across the world in 1968 extended at least throughout the 1970s. Rather than lamenting that contemporary movements are too brief and stunted, however, we should recognize the ways they are embedded in multiple temporalities that link them to the past and embed them in long-term political projects. A standard narrative of recent cycles of struggle, limiting its vision to Europe and North America, goes something like this.

  • Public Administration in the Information Age: Towards an Informatised Bureaucracy
    Kocaeli Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi (10) 2005 / 2 : 46-68 Public Administration in the Information Age: Towards an Informatised Bureaucracy Hamza Ateş* Sabri Bozali** Abstract: This article deals with the question of how the information and communi- cations technology revolution would affect government and public administration of the near-future. It is argued that development of information revolution would alter the nature of bureaucracy. The traditional - hierarchical public bureaucracy is being replaced by the informatised bureaucracy. Four main indicators of this trend are identified: rise of new elites, IT-led institutional restructuring, changing public and private sector relations through IT-led innovations, and the trend of a move from hierarchies to networks. Key words: Information Technology, Government, Public Administration, Bureaucracy. 1. Introduction Government reform has been the subject of considerable academic and practical dis- cussion in recent years (Ateş, 1999). In many circles, government is seen as ineffi- cient, ineffective or unresponsive to its social environment. Some argue that private- sector management techniques can be applied to government, which will produce public agencies that are more efficient, effective and responsive to clients than com- pared with traditional government bureaucracies, which are under less pressure to meet the needs of ordinary citizens. At the same time, new ideas about governance have also emerged, stressing collaborative relationships, network-like arrangements and hybrid public-private partnerships between various agencies and organizations which enable more effective problem solving and greater citizen participation in public affairs than in the past (La Porte et al., 2000). These two schools of thought about public administration and management both arise from the perception that * Doç.
