Contribute to Techplomacy Magazine

Techplomacy is a longform publication focused on what matters most in emerging technology: governance, cognition, and economy. We publish interviews, analysis, and original writing from researchers, diplomats, policymakers, and technologists working on the governance, security, and human consequences of emerging technology, with a special focus on the Global South.

What we cover: AI and technology governance, digital sovereignty, cybersecurity, the cognitive and human consequences of AI, and the economic and distributional effects of rapid technological change.

We're independent, nonprofit, and nonpartisan.

Editorial Series:

Techplomacy Conversations™ Flagship monthly series

Our flagship series features 10 to 12 contributions a year, bringing together interviews, expert analysis, and original essays from researchers, diplomats, policymakers, and technologists working at the intersection of power and technology.

We focus on the defining questions shaping the next decade: AI safety and governance, military and dual-use technologies, digital sovereignty, cybersecurity, data power, emerging tech ecosystems, and the sustainability challenges tied to compute, energy, and infrastructure.

This is not commentary for its own sake. We prioritize people actively building, regulating, and reshaping the systems that will define how technology is deployed and controlled globally.

The Cognitive Frontier™ Mind, cognition, and intelligence in the age of AI

This series examines how AI is reshaping the way humans think, learn, decide, and create knowledge, and what's at stake when cognitive work is increasingly outsourced to machines. We look at shifts in attention, memory, critical thinking, and intellectual agency, and ask what forms of human judgment and creativity need active protection.

We also take seriously the questions AI forces about minds themselves: machine cognition, digital consciousness, and what it means for a system to understand or reason. These aren't just philosophical puzzles. They shape how we build, regulate, and relate to AI.

We welcome cognitive scientists, educators, psychologists, philosophers of mind, and policymakers working on either side of that question.

The New Dividend™ Who benefits from the tech economy, and who doesn't

This series examines the economic and structural consequences of AI, automation, and emerging technologies, with a focus on distribution, power, and long-term resilience.

We explore how value is created and concentrated in the tech economy, and what that means for labor markets, inequality, taxation, and social protection systems. This includes frameworks like AI-linked taxation, redistribution models, workforce transformation, and sustainability constraints tied to energy and compute growth.

We are interested in structural analysis rather than short-term market narratives, and in the policy choices that will shape who benefits from technological change and who is left behind. We welcome economists, labor researchers, policy thinkers, sociologists, and global development experts.
