Public Digital Opens UK Pre-Orders for Digital Sovereignty Book

Promotional graphic titled "Digital Sovereignty: The Power to Decide," announcing that Public Digital has opened pre-orders for a forthcoming book on digital dependency, governance, and organisational agency. The layout features a crumpled white paper background with a 3D mockup of the black book cover on the left.

Book pre-orders have opened in the UK for Digital Sovereignty: The Power to Decide, a forthcoming title from Public Digital published with London Publishing Partnership. Public Digital says the book will be for sale in autumn 2026.

The announcement frames digital sovereignty as a question of institutional agency rather than full ownership or isolation from external systems. Public Digital defines the issue as the capacity to make deliberate choices about digital systems, data, skills, suppliers, and rules, then follow through on those choices.

London Publishing Partnership lists Mike Bracken, Andrew Greenway, James Stewart, Lauren Kahn, and Raine Lester as authors. The publisher lists the book at £17.99 with ISBN 9781916749726, and says it is available to UK buyers for pre-order.

The book’s themes were also linked to a panel at Devex Impact House: The Capital Summit in Washington, DC, on 16 April 2026. Public Digital listed Lauren Kahn, senior director and head of global impact, and James Stewart, partner at Public Digital, as speakers for the session.

It does not provide a table of contents, chapter-level detail, review material, or implementation examples. For Drupal and open web readers, the book places digital sovereignty within broader questions of procurement, vendor dependency, platform control, and institutional governance, areas that affect how organisations choose and maintain digital systems over time.
