    Local democracy online: An analysis of local government web sites in England and Wales
    (IGI Global, 2007) Pratchett, Lawrence; Wingfield, Melvin; Karakaya Polat, Rabia
    This report from the field analyzes the extent to which local authorities in England and Wales have responded to the e-democracy agenda by examining their Web sites and assessing their potential to deliver democracy. The analysis of Web sites provides a powerful insight into how local government is using the Internet to promote democracy. Two aspects of Web site use are particularly significant. First, the analysis reveals the overall commitment to e-democracy in local government, as it is a measure of actual behavior rather than simply an attitudinal survey. Second, it highlights the types of democratic structure being supported and the values being emphasized in the implementation of e-democracy. The research demonstrated that the potential of the Internet for enhancing democracy is not fully exploited by local authorities and there remain considerable variations between different authorities.

    Turkey and Ukraine’s strategic positioning: economic, energy, and military cooperation in the geopolitical landscape between the European Union and Russia
    (Taylor and Francis, 2025-01-01) Karakaya Polat, Rabia; Lebduška, Michal
    The geopolitical positioning of Ukraine and Turkey between the European Union (EU) and Russia holds significant implications for their economies. The analysis first highlights how Turkey’s balancing act between the West and Russia has been further complicated by the war in Ukraine, offering both challenges and opportunities in economic, energy, and military fields. The chapter then turns to Ukraine showing how the annexation of the Crimea and military intervention in Donbas in 2014 prompted extensive internal reforms and a definitive shift towards European and Euro-Atlantic integration. The chapter argues that the domestic political trajectories in Turkey and Ukraine involve sequences of opening and closing, democratic reform and authoritarian resurgence, influenced by internal factors but simultaneously linked to the EU’s ambiguity towards their European aspirations and Russia’s geopolitical aspirations.
