Geopolitics of AI: The Clash of Four Competing Worldviews

Geopolitics of AI: The Clash of Four Competing Worldviews by Jean Narcisse Djaha is a timely and thought-provoking book that goes beyond describing a global rivalry. It offers a clear and compelling framework for understanding how four competing visions of the U.S. drive for Innovation, China’s state-led model, Europe’s regulatory approach, and the Global South’s call for inclusion are shaping the future of power, governance, and technology.

This is more than analysis; it is a call to action. Djaha makes the case for resilience, ethical courage, and stakeholder-centred leadership in an age of uncertainty. For executives preparing to lead in the digital era, this book is an interesting reading: a concise guide to navigating complexity while shaping a more equitable and responsible future.
