While enjoying centralist tendencies and a strict hierarchical bureaucratic model intrinsic to the inner cycles of the organizational levels, the Turkish administrative system has been trying new forms of governance models exemplified in e-government policies. This paper tries to analyze and discuss the main tenets, actors, coordinating and partnership mechanisms, undertakings, evaluation techniques and prospects of e-government policies as a newly emerging policy area with specific reference to Turkish e-transformation efforts, policies and initiatives. Firstly, the paper would underline the \u201cformation\u201d and \u201cparticipation\u201d (formulation) dimension and stage of the ICT policy process. Presenting up-to-date information and analyses regarding the developments in recent and current stage of evolution, guidelines and suggestions for future are also provided. The discussion will also be furthered by an analysis of country (Turkey) rankings in international (United Nations) e-government reports as an up-to-date case of strategy development, policy formulation and implementation.<\/p>","DOI":"10.4018\/ijtd.2013100102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,2]],"date-time":"2014-06-02T13:00:08Z","timestamp":1401714008000},"page":"27-44","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Turkish Case of E-Government Strategy Development and Policy-Formulation Process"],"prefix":"10.4018","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"As\u0131m","family":"Balc\u0131","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of National Education, Ankara, Turkey"}]},{"given":"Tun\u00e7 Durmu\u015f","family":"Medeni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"T\u00fcrksat, Y\u0131ld\u0131r\u0131m Beyaz\u0131t University, Ankara, Turkey"}]},{"given":"Ahmet","family":"Nohut\u00e7u","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yalova University, Yalova, Turkey"}]}],"member":"2432","reference":[{"key":"ijtd.2013100102-0","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"255","DOI":"10.3233\/IP-2007-0115","article-title":"Experts without expertise: E-society projects in developing countries \u2013 The case of Turkey.","volume":"12","author":"F.Alican","year":"2007","journal-title":"Information Polity"},{"key":"ijtd.2013100102-1","unstructured":"Alt\u0131nsoy, G.
