This is a first book-long analysis showing how the notion of
‘hybrid warfare’ was used to transform security policies and
discourses in an EU/NATO country. Building on current debates in
International Political Sociology, Critical Security Studies, and
Critical Geopolitics, it provides a novel account of how crisis,
geopolitics, uncertainty, and expertise are intertwined in the
social construction of threats. Based on extensive and original
empirical research of large textual archive and elite interviews in
the Czech Republic and Brussels, the book shows how officials,
bureaucrats, journalists, activists, and experts all participate in
the reshaping of security in a new geopolitical environment.
Zooming on the case of Czechia and its specific Central European
context, it complements the predominantly Western-centric studies
of insecurity with an account of how the liminal
position on an East/West boundary influences security politics. As
a first study of its kind and scope, it will be of interest to
academics and students interested in Central European politics,
practices and discourses of hybrid warfare, as well as critical
approaches to security and geopolitics.
