Exciting Launch of Praesidium
We are proud to present the fifth edition of Praesidium, a new milestone in our ongoing commitment to cultivate rigorous, independent thinking on the forces reshaping global affairs and security. As the international system grows more fragmented, digitised, and contested, this volume continues our mission to provide clarity, depth, and critical perspective on the dynamics that define power in the twenty-first century.
This edition explores how contemporary power is being reshaped at the intersection of geopolitics, technology, and security. From the silent transformation of global logistics and defence supply chains to debates on AI governance, cyber posture, and Europe’s search for resilience amid conflict and regulatory acceleration, the volume traces the growing strategic weight of digital infrastructures. It also moves across the Arctic’s rising relevance, climate-induced mobility, and new resource dependencies, showing how control over data, technology, and critical materials is redefining sovereignty; and how geography, innovation, and security are becoming increasingly inseparable.
Join the Conversation
As Praesidium continues to grow, so does the community that animates it. We invite readers, scholars, and practitioners to engage with us through our website and social channels, to exchange perspectives, propose ideas, and contribute to the debates that matter most. Praesidium thrives on dialogue, and your voice is an essential part of that exchange.
Looking Ahead
The transformations unfolding across geopolitical, technological, and environmental domains demand sustained reflection and intellectual courage. Future volumes of Praesidium will continue to provide space for diverse viewpoints, original research, and strategic insight, exploring the evolving meaning of power, security, and responsibility in an increasingly complex world.
Thank you for being part of Praesidium’s journey to inform, connect, and illuminate the challenges of our time.
