Summary/Abstract: Subject of intense debate, often marked with polemical accents, the different understandings of hybrid threats accept only one unanimous conclusion, namely that they share a lot of similarities and wide divergences. In this article the authors continue the series of their investigations conducted on the way hybrid threats are defined in various bibliographies– American, British, Russian, Chinese, Swedish, with particular attention to their transformative impact on the strategies and doctrines developed by NATO and the EU, and subsequently by the allied and member states. This article mainly describes the efforts made by the EU top level institutions to develop appropriate strategies, plans and procedures aimed at effectively countering hybrid threats through the integrated crisis management.
