The author give his own view to the practice forms of pre-state warfare which recognizes few of the modern limitations of war there is often no distinction between combatants and non-combatants, kidnapping takes place, massacres occur.

        The article describes various definitions of the problems of a hybrid society and how they resort to international laws of war, completely rejecting them either to justify their actions or because they do not apply to them because they are Christian or Western. Examples are also given of how these societies decide the connections necessary to communicate with other modern states. It also talks about decentralized and clan hybrid societies, the hybrid power generated by hybrid societies.        The article describes how a hybrid war arises, guerrilla actions, tools of psychological influence on the mood of people and decision makers and their goals that change public attitudes, causing distrust in their own government, and so on.

        Examples are also given of how the "hybrid war" is aimed not only at replacing the "chips of the Bulgarians", but also at creating a new political discourse.
