The Technological Republic - Hard Power, Soft Belief, and the Future of the West

The Sunday Times and #1 New York Times Bestseller

'The Technological Republic is far too important to ignore' Times Literary Supplement

Silicon Valley's brightest minds once collaborated with governments to advance technologies, securing the West's dominance on the global stage. But that relationship has corroded - with perilous repercussions for us all.

Lifting the veil on tech giant Palantir and its broader political project, visionary co-founder and CEO Alexander C. Karp and his long-time deputy Nicholas W. Zamiska offer a searing critique of our collective culture of complacency. To regain geopolitical power and preserve our freedoms, we must tackle the world's most pressing challenges - including the artificial intelligence arms race - together and head-on. Now is the time for the West to wake up.
