"Sovereignty": The Transformation of the Concept in the Context of the Search for National Identity

The article analyzes the validity of the introduction of the concepts of "technological sovereignty" and "cultural sovereignty" into the legal system, their relationship with state sovereignty. The idea of the inexpediency of dividing state sovereignty into types is substantiated. It is proved that in the modern world, the development of science and technology is possible only through cooperation with civilized countries. Sovereignty and culture are words that do not fit together, as they imply different missions and ways of implementation. According to the author, the greatest effect in protecting interests in the development of domestic technologies and culture can be achieved through ensuring state sovereignty, which involves the use of diplomacy. The traditions of Russian diplomacy should be used to protect the interests of the country, including in the fields of culture, science and technology.
