Techno-Statecraft explores the material politics of digital infrastructure—the factories, power grids, data centers, and industrial zones that sustain the digital economy. This publication examines how states and corporations wield infrastructure as a tool of power, reshaping land, resources, and governance in the process.

Techno-Statecraft moves beyond tech hype to ask deeper questions: Where does the electricity, water, and land come from to sustain digital industries? Who benefits from this transformation, and who bears the costs? How are geopolitical struggles over semiconductors, AI, and cloud computing reshaping territorial governance?

By tracing the intersection of technology and state intervention, Techno-Statecraft makes sense of today’s infrastructure boom—not just as a technological shift, but as a political, economic, and environmental transformation that will define the future.
