OverviewHybrid threats posed by various combinations of state and non-state actors have presented considerable transnational challenges to EU-members and NATO-allies. This ongoing rise of hybrid threats, ranging from political instability in Eastern Europe and the Middle East to the resulting mass refugee influx and terrorism in the European neighborhood, stress the need to timely discuss important questions about hybrid threats and the venues for effective Euro-Atlantic cooperation, including post-Brexit policy implications. This edited volume presents comprehensive analyses from various experts on these interrelated issues, and, thus, represents an essential source for scholars and practitioners of European politics and international relations with an interest in contemporary transnational security issues. In addition, this book will be useful as up-to-date coursework material for courses on European security and foreign policy, international security and strategic studies, unconventional warfare, and transatlantic relations.

Table of ContentsReviewsIn examining the issues involved from the perspective of the generation of hybrid threats the approach of all of the essays taken together throws important dimensions of the issues into a relief which can inform policy-makers. The very existence of threats suggests the necessity for preparation and for advanced strategic analysis. The essays should provide an agenda both for academic research and for policy-makers to request advice as to how best to meet the multi-dimensioned hybrid threats, not only to Europe's security, but also to a deeper analysis of its internal and external social, economic, and political development.

This very timely volume brings together a number of qualified scholars from different disciplines, all astutely making use of the concept of 'hybrid threats' to analyze and shed light on the harsh political realities that the EU is trying to live through today. Professor Bo PeterssonDirector of Russia and the Caucasus Regional Research Platform, Malmoe University, Sweden While the EU and NATO are still struggling to understand what hybrid threats really are, and how they can be effectively tackled, this volume could not be more timely.
