Summary/Abstract: In the general context of globalization, liberalization of informational flows and quasi-instant access to means of communication, within a society where production and consumption of information represent the most important type of activity, there is the risk that, from subject of information, a populace becomes object of manipulation. In the contemporary society, which is informational and knowledge based, modern fight transcends from its classic dimensions - namely land, air, sea and, to a lesser extent, spatial - to information dimension, where it aims to counter hostile flows of information and to project correctly, pro-actively and in due time military actions and operations in front of local, regional or international audiences. The modern fight is especially “a fight of ideas” and is produced nowadays in one new dimension where the virtual space, the informational space is the battlefield.
