The paper discusses nonviolent civilian defense strategies as a means to counter Russian hybrid warfare, particularly highlighting the effectiveness of nonviolent resistance in the face of aggression, as demonstrated during the conflict in Ukraine. It provides a framework for how NATO and smaller European states can employ grassroots nonviolent strategies to strengthen defense against hybrid threats.
