4th İSTANBUL BOSPHORUS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CYBERSECURITY, CYBERPOLITICS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES
December 12, 2020
This year I have had the chance to participate and make a presentation in the 4th Istanbul Bosphorus International Conference on Cybersecurity, Cyberpolitics and Social Sciences. Last year was my first time in this conference. The conference has provided a really fruitful dialogue platform for academic debates related with cyberpolitics issue in general.
In the conference entitled “4th Istanbul Bosphorus International Conference on Cybersecurity, Cyberpolitics and Social Sciences” the leading role belonged to the conference chair Professor Nezir Akyeşilmen. Prof. Akyeşilmen has importantly contributed to the development of cybersecurity and cyberpolitics discipline in Turkish academia. In the conference, the scholars, experts and graduate students from various countries have found the opportunity to participate in a quite fruitful academic arena.
In the conference I made a presentation entitled “Legal Challenges in Cyberspace”. For my presentation, you can visit my academia profile. For Session-3 B: High Politics and Low Politics in Cyberspace and my presentation, visit my Youtube channel .
The conference hosted various researchers from different countries for three days. In two sessions, the scholars had the opportunity to make presentation in their own native language as well. Due to Coronavirus pandemic, the conference was held on zoom platform this year and also it was live on Facebook too, so many people could reach the sessions easily.
