    D’après cet article, le Pentagone découvre un « nouveau type de guerre » , la « guerre hybride » – qui ressemble pourtant terriblement à ce que les États-Unis pratiquent un peu partout dans le monde depuis bien longtemps : « the combination of stealth invasion, local proxy forces and international propaganda » (mais je suppose qu’au Post, personne ne lit Chomsky).

    The ‘new’ type of war that finally has the Pentagon’s attention

    The Pentagon is increasingly concerned about how to combat “hybrid warfare,” the combination of stealth invasion, local proxy forces and international propaganda that Russia used to annex Crimea and destabilize eastern Ukraine, U.S. officials said.

    Army Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on Thursday released the 2015 National Military Strategy, in which he cited Russia’s actions in Ukraine and said “hybrid conflicts” will persist well into the future.

      In international relations, the term smart power refers to the combination of hard power and soft power strategies. It is defined by the Center for Strategic and International Studies as “an approach that underscores the necessity of a strong military, but also invests heavily in alliances, partnerships, and institutions of all levels to expand American influence and establish legitimacy of American action.”[...]
      2004: Joseph S. Nye introduces the term “smart power” in his book, “Soft Power: The Means to Success in World Politics”. “Smart power is neither hard nor soft. It is both,” he writes. In an article in “Foreign Affairs”, analyst Suzanne Nossel uses the term “smart power”. For Nossel, “Smart power means knowing that the United States’ own hand is not always its best tool: U.S. interests are furthered by enlisting others on behalf of U.S. goals.” [...]
      2009: Under the Obama administration, smart power became a core principle of his foreign policy strategy. It was popularized by Hillary Clinton during her Senate confirmation hearing on January 13, 2009 for the position of Secretary of State. Both Suzanne Nossel and Joseph Nye were supportive of Clinton’s encouragement of smart power, since it would popularize the use of smart power in U.S. foreign policy.
