Amme Idaresi Dergisi investigates governance structures and public policy frameworks, with a focus on the implications of policy decisions on societal outcomes. This includes studies on local governance, e-participation, and the effects of administrative reforms. - Societal and Cultural Contexts of Governance:
The journal addresses the intersection of culture, society, and governance. It analyzes how cultural dynamics and societal values influence public administration and policy-making processes, particularly in multicultural settings. - Historical Perspectives on Administration:
A significant focus is placed on the historical analysis of administrative practices, particularly in the Ottoman Empire and early Turkish Republic. This includes studies on citizenship, legal frameworks, and the evolution of bureaucratic norms. - Crisis Management and Public Health:

Trending and Emerging
- Digital Governance and E-Participation:
There is a growing emphasis on digital governance, particularly the integration of technology in public administration and citizen participation. Research on e-government initiatives and ICT-enabled co-production in public services is increasingly prevalent. - Behavioral Policy and Nudge Theory:
The application of behavioral insights and nudge theory in policy-making is emerging as a significant theme. This reflects a trend towards understanding how psychological factors influence public administration and policy effectiveness. - Crisis Response and Resilience:
Studies examining the administrative response to crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and natural disasters, are gaining traction. This trend underscores the importance of resilience and adaptability in public governance. - Socio-Political Implications of Public Health Policies:
Research analyzing the socio-political implications of public health policies, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, is increasingly relevant. This includes discussions on vaccine refusal, public trust, and the politicization of health responses. - Urban Governance and Local Development:
The journal is increasingly focusing on urban governance issues, exploring the dynamics of local development, privatization, and community activism. This shift reflects the importance of local contexts in understanding broader governance challenges.
Declining or Waning
- Historical Comparisons of Governance Models:
While earlier issues featured comparative analyses of historical governance models, this focus has lessened. The journal now appears to prioritize contemporary issues and local governance challenges over historical comparisons. - Theoretical Discussions on Political Philosophy:
The exploration of political philosophy, particularly in relation to classical theorists like Kant and Locke, has become less frequent. The journal's current trajectory suggests a shift towards more practical applications of public administration rather than abstract philosophical debates. - Minority Rights and Ethnic Studies:
Research focusing specifically on minority rights within the context of Turkish governance has seen a decline. This may indicate a broader shift towards more general themes of citizenship and collective rights rather than specific ethnic or minority issues. - The Role of Literature and Arts in Governance:
Earlier editions included discussions on the politicization of art and literature within governance contexts. However, this theme has waned, possibly due to a greater focus on empirical research and policy analysis.
