E-Government in Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan, a former post-Soviet state, has been successful in the development of e-government. This book analyzes the e-government politics in the country from a multitude of dimensions. It examines the adoption of a wide range of technology-driven public sector projects and platforms and identifies the key drivers, challenges, regulation policies and stakeholders of e-government reforms in this transitional society. Furthermore, it suggests that a universal framework can be applied when investigating e-government projects in the developing world.
Understanding Systems of e-Government
The main purpose of the book was to analyze heterogeneous political and institutional aspects in the development of such an arguably universal tool of modern democracy as e-government from the perspectives of two nations with completely different systems of governance and traditions of public administration and provide generalizations on objective institutional limitations that indirectly affect the implementation of political and administrative decision-making in this area by governments of the United States and Kazakhstan, representing respectively the typical federal and unitary state. This book is both a policy review and agenda setting research. By applying case studies of e-government ...

Examining the most salient manifestations of related networking activities, the motivations of stakeholders, and the political and socioeconomic readiness of the public, private and civic sectors to advance such policies, it will appeal to e-government experts, policymakers and political scientists, as well as academics and students of public administration, public policy, and open data governance.
Civic Engagement and Politics: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications
Creating transparency between government and citizens through outreach and engagement initiatives is critical to promoting community development and is also an essential part of a democratic society. This can be achieved through a number of methods including public policy, urban development, artistic endeavors, and digital platforms. Civic Engagement and Politics: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications is a vital reference source that examines civic engagement practices in social, political, and non-political contexts. As the world is now undergoing a transformation, interdisciplinary collaboration, participation, community-based participatory research, partnerships, and co-creation have become more common than focused domains. Highlighting a range of topics such as social media and politics, civic activism, and public administration, this multi-volume book is geared toward government officials, leaders, practitioners, policymakers, academicians, and researchers interested in active citizen participation and politics.

Inteligência Artificial e Direito Administrativo
A informática está tornando-se um instrumento essencial dentro da Administração Pública. Até o ponto de que se pode falar de um novo agente público. A automação administrativa como fenômeno induzido pelo uso da informática e as tecnologias de tratamento da informação no exercício da função administrativa por parte da Administração são, hoje, aspectos presentes e irreversíveis.

Inclusive, ninguém questiona as vantagens que o uso da tecnologia representa à Administração, inclusive, é atualmente indispensável. Entre as vantagens, chamam a atenção a racionalidade e a mod...
Uzbekistan’s Foreign Policy
Uzbekistan’s foreign policy from 1991 to 2016, starting from independence right up to the death of its first president, Islam Karimov, is one of the more distinctive approaches to international politics since the end of the Cold War. This distinctiveness rests on the republic’s gradual struggle for self-reliance upon becoming independent. Authorities in Uzbekistan, especially its President, were sceptics of the norms that came to prevail across regional and broader international politics. This book addresses the making of Uzbekistan’s general foreign policy and its corresponding effects outside Central Asia, particularly at the highest level, among state officials, heads of state and m...

Due to the complexity and irregular distribution of political reforms at different levels of l...
Power and Water in Central Asia
Water is an irreplaceable and transient resource, which crosses political boundaries in the form of rivers, lakes, and groundwater aquifers. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, led to the birth of fifteen countries including the five Central Asian republics, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. When the USSR ceased to exist, so did the centralised Soviet resource distribution system that managed the exchange and allocation of water, energy, and food supplies. A whole new set of international relations emerged, and the newly formed Central Asian governments had to redefine the policies related to the exchange and sharing of their natural resources. This book ...
