What is Technocratic Neo-Apartheid™?

Technocratic Neo-Apartheid™ (TNA™) is a digitally enforced system of exclusion, stratification, and suppression enabled by algorithmic tools and justified by technocratic logic. It is the reprogramming of apartheid through code—predictive policing, economic automation, biometric surveillance, and algorithmic governance.

This publication is the official home of the TNA–TNC Project, which explores the global rise of both Technocratic Neo-Apartheid™ and Technocratic Neo-Colonialism™. We analyze emerging technologies, expose case studies of digital segregation, curate resources, and build frameworks for resistance.

From Palestine to Detroit, from predictive border control to algorithmic redlining, we trace the architecture of power that operates through data, denies accountability, and deepens inequality.

TNA™ is not coming. It’s already here.

This is the journal for those naming the system—and refusing to be governed by it.

If you care about resisting surveillance, decoding technocratic power, and defending human dignity in the age of AI—this is for you.
