Emerging technologies—such as advanced artificial intelligence, distributed ledgers, quantum computing, and synthetic…
For decades, the globalization of technology operated on a frictionless premise: data, software, cloud infrastructure, and hardware components flowed freely across planetary networks, managed by transnational tech conglomerates under the assumption of a borderless digital commons. In the 21st-century network society, that era of techno-optimistic interdependence has ended. Digital sovereignty—the capacity of a state, society,…
