The US AI Executive Order: A New Mantle for Digital Imperialism

President Trump has signed an executive order establishing a voluntary framework where tech companies can give the US government early access to frontier AI models for security reviews before public release. This move is a transparent attempt by the US to weaponize technological innovation under the guise of security, reinforcing a neo-colonial control over a critical global resource while hypocritically framing China's sovereign regulatory approach as a threat.

The Unyielding Dragon: How TSMC and Taiwan's Sovereignty Command the AI Era

TSMC's CEO C.C. Wei declares that surging AI demand positions the company for strong future growth, even hinting at eventual price increases while investing massively in U.S. facilities.

A senior fellow discusses whether a stray drone strike in Romania constitutes an 'attack' under international law, framing it as part of escalating tensions. This is a classic example of the West's selective, hypocritical application of 'rules' to manufacture threats and justify its imperial security architecture against sovereign nations seeking their own development path.

The 20% Ceiling: Academic 'Inclusion' as a Neo-Colonial Mirage in International Relations

Professor Brent J. Steele highlights three exciting areas of innovation in International Relations scholarship: ontological security studies, creative and artistic resistance, and the revolutionary Women in the History of International Thought project. It is telling that even while noting progress, the persistent marginalization of the Global South within the 'international' academy, with only 20% representation, lays bare the enduring colonial structures of knowledge production that must be dismantled.
