Manoylo A.V. Hybrid wars and color revolutions in global politics

Abstract: This article is dedicated to determination of the role of hybrid wars and color revolutions in modern politics. The hybrid wars are being viewed as a new form of armed conflict, in which the use of domestic armed forces is no longer a necessary condition in order to achieve victory over the adversary: “brute force” in a hybrid war is implemented along with non-military methods of affecting the enemy – information-psychological warfare, technologies of soft and smart force, methods of economic pressure, isolation or blockade, and instruments of traditional diplomacy. The color revolutions are examined in the article as technologies of organizing government overthrows using acts of mass civil disobedience, transforming into a managed civil apprising. The author determines that color revolutions cannot be elements of hybrid wars, as they are different and incompatible with each other forms of pressure upon the opponent. But it is in namely the color revolution that by dismantling political regimes, create the environment for initiation of external aggression, which then takes on a shape of a hybrid war.


Keywords:
