metadata.value: Today, digital transformation is one of the national goals of all developed and developing countries
  of the world. At the same time, mass digitalization also reveals negative consequences,
  which include the digital divide, the transformation of labor markets, the technocratization of
  the social and political spheres, etc., which largely stimulate the process of colonization coming
  from leading IT corporations and countries claiming the status of digital empires. In this
  vein, new tasks arise for states to ensure national security, due to the need to form sustainable
  digital sovereignty. This article is aimed at identifying the specifics, main problems and consequences
  of digital colonialization. The authors pay special attention to the US colonial policy in
  the context of understanding the phenomenon of digital empires; conceptual understanding
  of “digital sovereignty”; the risks of the digital age. The key research questions of the work
  are the following: What challenges does ultra-fast digitalization entail? How is the digital colonial
  policy formed and implemented? What are the main problems of digital colonialism? How
  to form and maintain sustainable digital state sovereignty? The significance of the presented
  study lies in the combination of theoretical approaches and real political practice, which makes
  it possible to characterize the whole variety of processes and effects of digital colonialization.
  In conclusion, the authors discuss the possibilities of import substitution in this area, and also
  offer practical recommendations for the implementation of the import substitution policy in
  modern Russia, emphasizing the need for a balanced development of the regulatory, legal,
  technological, competence, political, economic and managerial components of national digital
  sovereignty.
