Lectern: Social Media Oriented Governance Model for Negotiation Processes

Öz

Current governance paradigms focus on improving integration between deliberative processes and representative institutions. These discussions are mainly shaped around the need to develop open and transparent communication mechanisms and processes that ensure direct participation and increase trust mechanisms. Based on similar needs, a new social media effective governance model has been proposed in our study, which ensures the monitoring and protection of participatory and deliberative processes. The model is built on the tag structure and shaped around elements such as context, immutability, reliability, and consistency, which are the basic mechanisms of communication. In the development of this model, the hashing mechanism of the blockchain was used, as it is a technology that provides up-to-date and immutability control. However, blockchain is unsuitable for modeling mechanisms such as mutable data, context, reliability, and consistency. For this reason, some changes were made in the data structure of the blockchain to support these mechanisms, and as a result, the model we developed was compared with the blockchain technology in terms of time and space complexity. As a result of the comparison, it has been determined that the tag structure, which forms the basis of the model we developed, has higher performance than the data structure of the blockchain. Our proposal is expected to contribute to the development of negotiation processes by creating a reliable social media environment in community administrations.

Kürsü: Oylaşma Süreçleri için Sosyal Medya Etkili Yönetişim Modeli

Öz

Güncel yönetişim paradigmaları oylaşmacı süreçler ve temsili kurumlar arasındaki entegrasyonu geliştirmeye odaklanmaktadır. Bu tartışmalar çoğunlukla, açık ve saydam iletişim mekanizmalarının yanı sıra doğrudan katılımı sağlayan süreçlerin geliştirilmesine ve güven mekanizmalarının artırılmasına yönelik gereksinimler etrafında şekillenmektedir. Benzer gereksinimlerden yola çıkarak çalışmamızda, katılımcı ve oylaşmacı süreçlerin takibi ve korunmasını güvence altına alan, sosyal medya etkili yeni bir yönetişim modeli önerilmiştir. Model, etiket yapısı üzerine inşa edilmiş ve iletişimin temel mekanizmaları olan bağlam, değişmezlik, güvenilirlik ve tutarlılık gibi unsurlar etrafında şekillendirilmiştir. Bu modelin geliştirilmesinde, güncel ve değişmezliğin kontrolünü sağlayan bir teknoloji olması nedeniyle öbek zincirinin özetleme mekanizmasından yararlanılmıştır. Ancak öbek zinciri değişebilir veri, bağlam, güvenilirlik ve tutarlılık gibi mekanizmaların modellenmesi için uygun değildir. Bu nedenle, öbek zincirinin veri yapısında söz konusu mekanizmaların desteklenmesi için bazı değişiklikler yapılmış ve sonucunda da geliştirdiğimiz model ile öbek zinciri teknolojisi, zaman ve alan karmaşıklığı açısından karşılaştırılmıştır. Karşılaştırma sonucunda, geliştirdiğimiz modelin temelini oluşturan etiket yapısının, öbek zincirinin veri yapısına göre daha yüksek başarım ortaya koyduğu tespit edilmiştir. Önerimizin, topluluk yönetimlerinde güvenilir bir sosyal medya ortamı oluşturarak oylaşma süreçlerinin geliştirilmesine katkı sunması beklenmektedir.
