Article Citation Count: 0Spotlight Turkey: a Pivotal Swing State in Nato(Turkish Policy Quarterly, 2021) Eldem, Tuba; Siyaset Bilimi ve Uluslararası İlişkiler BölümüTurkey's geostrategic location at the crossroads of Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, and its dual identity as both a European and Asian state is unique in the world. The country safeguards strategic waterways and offers NATO critical staging bases and logistical support to extend its reach in the Middle East. With its dual identity, multiaxial foreign policy and hybrid political regime, Turkey also emerges as a pivotal swing state in shaping the contours of a stronger Transatlantic Alliance in the emerging new global world order marked by growing power competition between Western liberal democracies and Eastern autocratic regimes.Article Citation Count: 1International Cybersecurity Norms and Responsible Cyber Sovereignty(Istanbul Univ, Fac Law, 2021) Eldem, Tuba; Siyaset Bilimi ve Uluslararası İlişkiler BölümüInitially envisioned as a free and open communication space between people, free from state regulation and intervention, cyberspace has become a fundamental subject of national and global politics over the last decade. Allegedly state-sponsored cyber operations against Estonia in 2007, Georgia in 2008 and Iran in 2010 played an important role in turning cybersecurity into a national and international security issue. Although the development of cyber diplomacy and international cybersecurity law were left behind the militarization of cyberspace, nevertheless, there have been many international initiatives to adopt international cybersecurity norms in the past decade. Within the framework of the life cycle model of the norms developed by Martha Finnemore and Kathryn Sikkink (1998), this article aims to shed light on the emergence of international cybersecurity norms by focusing on the negotiations held at the First Committee of the United Nations for more than twenty years. The article argues that those negotiations held under the First Committee dealing with disarmament and international security issues indicate the first stage of the formation of international rules related to cyberspace, and the negotiations to be completed under the UN Open-Ended Working Group in 2021 is critical for the transition of international cybersecurity norms from the first to the second stage.Article Citation Count: 8The Governance of Turkey's Cyberspace: Between Cyber Security and Information Security(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Eldem, Tuba; Siyaset Bilimi ve Uluslararası İlişkiler BölümüThis article explores Turkey's multifaceted cyberspace governance policy and argues that positioned between two opposites of cyberspace governance that has close military and security ties to the West, and domestic Internet policies more similar of Russia-China axis, Turkey should be considered as a swing state in global cyberspace governance debates. The article shows that despite her official discourse on multi-stakeholderism and its compliance with the emerging norms in the Euro-Atlantic alliance concerning cyber-security, cyber-crime, and cyber-defense; Turkey's domestic Internet policy converges towards the Russia-China axis characterized by the rise of information controls and increasing efforts to establish "digital sovereignty" to national cyber space.
