EVOLUȚIA CONCEPTULUI DE RĂZBOI HIBRID ÎN STRATEGIILE NAȚIONALE DE APĂRARE ALE ROMÂNIEI
THE HYBRID WAR CONCEPT EVOLUTION IN ROMANIA’S NATIONAL DEFENSE STRATEGIES

Summary/Abstract: The disappearance of the bipolar hegemonic character, the globalization process, the preservation of some hegemonic statutes and the hybrid aggressions emergence against the tense competitive markets and resources background were the key factors that led to international security environment major changes, fact that required a national defense rethinking, based on new risks and state threats. The way national defense strategies are designed and their content have varied from one period to another, depending on international events, economic crises, geopolitical games as well as past and present affiliations with regional or international institutions and organizations. The hybrid war concept was graduallly introduced in the defense strategies, initially being associated with some more well-known patterns such as asymmetric, informational aggression, terrorism or cyber attacks. However, considering that the conceptual boundaries between peace and war were diluted, they would all need a better nuanced, developed and argued approach.
