PANEL 1: GOVERMENT, ELECTIONS AND SECURITY (Large auditorium)
Moderator: dr. Domagoj Bebić
The nature of an election makes it vulnerable to a range of security threats against participants, infrastructure, information and materials.
Effective election security analysis must draw on information and expertise from multiple arenas. A high-level of communication and coordination among the agencies responsible for the administration and security of an election is a significant advantage. Neither can security analysis and planning be effective when it occurs only in a period shortly before the electoral process starts, nor depend solely on reactive strategies. Anticipating and pre-empting security risks, mitigating their impact or probability of occurrence, is a strategic endeavour of both the electoral authorities and their security partners.

Dr.phil. Papadopoulou Dora, Democritus
University of Thrace; Greece
We are part of a
society with so many problems of political configuration. Political ideas, political
theories they seem to be ignored in our societies. Our priorities are
different. We have lost our faith in political ideologies. Our aim should be
the redefinition of ideas like “participation” as well as an attempt to see in
which way it can be translated into reality. We should use the
impact of new technologies in order to understand the dimension of
participation. So the goal of this lecture is to declare the requirement of new
technologies on democracy. His study focus on Greece

The potential and limits of facebook and other social media in anti-corruption campaigns of civil society organizations: Case of Bosnia and Herzegovina
Dr. Zarfa Hrnjić Kuduzović, University of
Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina
"In
most transition countries, there is a high level of corruption in different
social spheres, and Bosnia and Herzegovina is one of the most corrupt countries
in Europe. Thanks to their potential, social networks can be a
suitable communication tool in anti-corruption campaigns. In 2008., B&H
was among the top ten countries in the world by number of Facebook users with
regard to the number of its inhabitants. Bearing in mind the
presence of these two phenomena in B&H, and the experiences of some
countries in which social media was used to mobilize citizens, I explore the
possibility of using Facebook and other social media for the development of
civic activism and the fight against corruption in transition countries such as
B&H. The aim of the paper is to determine in what ways
and under what social conditions social media can encourage civic activism.
The
following methods were used: analysis of the content of the facebook profiles
of civil society organization that implement the anti-corruption campaigns in
B&H; content analysis of crowdsourcing platforms for
reporting corruption; a questionnaire for representatives of civil society
organizations and a comparative method."

The effectiveness of social media applications is becoming increasingly important in the public sphere. Politicians, who are the actors of representation and decision-making in the public sphere, recognized these applications and they have begun to use social media applications for the political participation of public and find out the demands of them. Nowadays, many politicians actively use social networks both in Turkey and around the world, thus, they are able to reach more people and radiate their political views to a wider audience. Social media, that create a common medium of communication between citizens and politicians, paves the way for the accountability of politicians, permits the people to questioning them, and also opens a door to the politicians for to influence the citizens or to learn the thoughts of citizens about their politics or performance. Social networks, that offer the citizens to act more transparent and more independent, by this way, also have develope the participatory democracy.
This study aims to explore how the leaders of political parties that represented in the parliament in Turkey, use the social media. In order to determine the social media usage profile of party leaders in Turkey, the frequency and objectives of usage social media by politicians will be examined. The analysis will be conducted on the politicians’ message, language, discourse, visual material etc. which share on Twitter. Further more, the study will also handle whether the politicians use the twitter interactively -answer the questions of their fallowers- or not. The findings that obtained from the survey will show us how effective the party leaders use the social media to reach the public.

Social media tools are easy to use, but civil servants need support and training to develop dialogue and interaction skills and governments must help them with it. The opportunities that social media can potentially generate through its inexpensive and omnipresent nature are great.

Dr. Marijana Musladin, University ofDubrovnik, Croatia
Social Media are
connection and mass communication tools, characterized by a global diffusion
and an ever-growing level of use, considering their handiness and flexibility,
as well as their extreme cheapness. Using these media can cause several
negative effects for national security and unfavourable consequences for a
state’s strategic interests. Nevertheless, their use can also lead to
remarkable opportunities for a country in order to reach its strategic
relevant goals, foresee how threats will work in the future and figure out
how to counter their effects.
