On the Issue of Technological Sovereignty in Contemporary Russia

The article addresses the problem of power relations, including the transformation of power paradigms and their imagery amid the shift toward political technicism. Digitalization, driven by scientific and technological progress, continuously expands its reach into ever-new domains — power relations being no exception. Political technicism reveals the multifaceted nature of this digitalization process, wherein a well-conceived doctrine of technological sovereignty becomes critically important. Drawing on an interdisciplinary approach, the author formulates scholarly propositions that elucidate Russia’s role and position in a rapidly transforming world. The analysis examines both the present and future of Russia’s domestic political landscape through the lens of technological sovereignty. This perspective enriches and broadens the prevailing understanding of Russia as a strong, sovereign state capable of responding effectively to contemporary civilizational and geopolitical challenges.
