Abstract

The article discusses the problems of technological sovereignty as a concept accompanying the technological development of the country. The evolution of development ideologemes from import substitution to technological development in socio-political and academic discourse is considered. Based on a systematic review of scientific literature, academic discourses on technological sovereignty studies in domestic and foreign (primarily European) literature are analyzed. It is shown that both in Russia and in the EU countries, the number of studies on the phenomenon of technological sovereignty increased considerably in the last three years, with a significant part of these studies aimed at developing an adequate definition of technological sovereignty. Based on expert interviews conducted by the authors with the representatives of the Russian academic community, elements of the perception of the essence of the concept of technological sovereignty by the domestic experts are presented; in particular, key narratives of both its essence and mechanisms of provision are highlighted. Russian experts note the diversity of interpretations of technological sovereignty and some internal contradictions of this concept.
