Summary/Abstract: The author considers that hybrid warfare is a system of social, military and non-military actions conducted in a discrete operational environment having as final result the dissolution of statehood. Thus, in post-war age, the most efficient strategy to defeat undesirable state sovereignty has proved to be its destructuring, be it peaceful or violent, from the inside, through different discrete social actions, followed, on a case by case basis, by restoring social order through military actions. Thus, the role of military structures has gradually changed, entailing the change in organisation and training, from the role of the main force to destroy the enemy to the one of the force specialised in managing post-conflict social states.
