Russian strategy today is often framed in terms of ‘hybridity’,
an approach characterised by interference in domestic politics
through cyber warfare and disinformation campaigns. Such asymmetric
measures are seen as part of a shift away from armed violence
towards political subversion and other non-military tools. Moving
beyond the concept of hybridity, this book looks more broadly at
Russian thinking about warfare. Drawing directly on Russian
sources, it reflects on a series of questions that are generally
overlooked in the existing Euro-Atlantic literature about Russia,
notably: what is the military leadership’s distinctive idea of
twenty-first-century blitzkrieg? How does it understand holistic
territorial defence? And how does it manage the shifting balance
between the offensive and defensive? Exploring key concepts and
terms used in Russian military thinking and action, Blitzkrieg and
the art of Russian war contributes to an active and lively debate
about Russia’s resurgent role in international affairs and the
challenge the country poses to the international order. -- .
