Rezumat

The informational war is not a new phenomenon in the history of civilisation, but it has evolved with new features due to the development of informational technology. In case of the informational war, the incursions have a strategic point to influence specific targets with psychological operations (psyops). This contributes at the creation of an alternative reality, being used, an arsenal of methods and manipulation tactics, which the aggressor thinks is right. Psychological operations are concerned with the human psyche, cognitive, affective and volitional processes, the production of strong emotions and the subjugation of individual and collective will. In this way, changes in consciousness are produced, which are translated into visible effects. The psychological war, as a variety and indispensable component of the informational war, aims to obtain a long lasting result in the modelling of the individual or collective conscious, coming of the characteristics of the human psyche and establishing behaviour and mechanisms, that, as a result of the exercised influence, to produce preestablished reaction in the subconscious of those manipulated. For the indoctrination of the psychic of the masses there are widely used disinformation and propaganda. In Paul Linebarger’s vision, propaganda is a valid weapon in a psychologic war, being elaborated in the spirit of science and transformed in art, and the development of propagandistic operations are controlled through scientific methods of psychology. The psychologic wars reach their target in any conditions, counting on social atomisation on different criteria, and applying destabilisation strategies and permanent social confrontations, so it can be subtly directed and having a selective perception, fragmented on socialpolitic reality per ensemble.
