Politics of Hybrid Warfare

The Remaking of Security in Czechia after 2014


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.

Über den Autor

Jakub Eberle is a researcher at the Institute of International Relations Prague, Czech Republic, working at the intersection of IR theory, social theory and international political sociology. His most recent research deals with the politics of hybrid warfare and is supported by the Czech Science Foundation Standard Grant (2019-2021). It has led to publications investigating how hybrid warfare was set on the security agenda in the Czech Republic and how different narratives and emotions linked to hybrid warfare circulate through the public sphere and on social networks, including articles in Political Psychology, Cooperation and Conflict, and Czech Sociological Review. He has further researched the geopolitics of knowledge and emotion in Central Europe, and German foreign policy, leading to articles in International Political Sociology, Foreign Policy Analysis, Journal of International Relations and Development and elsewhere, as well as two books (Routledge, Charles University Press). He has taught and researched at Warwick University, the University of Antwerp, Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, Free University of Berlin, and Charles University in Prague. He leads the Centre for European Politics at the Institute of International Relations Prague.
Jan Daniel is a researcher at the Institute of International Relations Prague, Czech Republic, interested in social theory, international political sociology and political anthropology. His most recent research project looks into the politics of Czech responses to hybrid warfare. The results of this project inquired the social processes that led to the establishment of hybrid warfare as a primary concern of Czech security; the narratives of hybrid warfare and knowledge production; and the affective resonance of certain interpretations of hybrid warfare, respectively. He has also studied global peace and security governance with works published in the Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding and Global Change, Peace and Security. Jan obtained his PhD in International Relations from Charles University in Prague and has taught there several courses on theory and methods of security studies and international security. He was also a visiting researcher at the European University Institute, Free University Berlin and Orient Institute Beirut.
