However, certain aspects of hybrid warfare are often confused with traditional soft power. This article aims to highlight the differences between the two by analyzing the relationship between Bulgaria and Russia. The latter enjoys considerable opportunities to exercise soft power, but often must accompany them with hybrid means. Yet, labeling everything as hybrid warfare becomes detrimental to the topic itself. Moreover, it runs the risk of ascribing greater power to the Kremlin which may not truly be the case. The aim of the authors is to expose the threats, opportunities, and limits of Russian influence in Bulgaria and the possible outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>5</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Todor Tagarev</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nikolay Pavlov</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shaping Bulgaria's Security and Defence R&amp;T Policy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Policy and Models for R&amp;D Management in Support of Defence Industrial Transformation</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></date></pub-dates></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Avangard Prima</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sofia</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">105-111</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>5</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Situation Scenarios with lead responsibility of the Ministry of Emergencies</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methodology and scenarios for defense planning</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ministry of Defence, Directorate &quot;Defence Policy&quot;, Military Publishing House</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sofia</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>27</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Защита на критичната инфраструктура в националното законодателство на република българия</style></title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.expert-bdd.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=745</style></url></web-urls></urls><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12.01.2007</style></number><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Velizar Shalamanov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Todor Tagarev</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nikolay Pavlov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valentin Stoyanov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pencho Geneshky</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stoyan Avramov</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Civil Security: Architectural Approach in Emergency Management Transformation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Information &amp;

The research is presently further developed within the framework of a NATO Science for Peace Project SFP-981149 for building new capabilities in Decision Making Support for the Bulgarian Security Sector. The main goal of this article is to assess the status and prospects ahead of the system for protection of population and critical infrastructure. The fundamental principles of the Concept for Civil Security of the Republic of Bulgaria have been formulated within the context of the establishment of an integrated security sector. An institutionalized civil security system is considered “the third pillar” of the security sector in Bulgaria. Three main alternatives for development of civil security system are put forward. The first alternative is a result of a narrow interpretation and application of the newly adopted Crisis Management Act. The second alternative offers a broader interpretation and application of the Crisis Management Act. This alternative envisages maximum interdepartmental coordination – “a quasi ministry, whereas a ministry is not actually established.” The third alternative envisages the establishment of a new Ministry of Civil Security. The development of a Center of Excellence in Security Sector Transformation in Bulgaria is proposed to provide scientific support to the effective transformation of the civil security system and the implementation of the Crisis Management Law.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kiril Stoychev</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Науката в подкрепа на планирането на модернизацията</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Военен журнал</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">109</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111-114</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111-114</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stefan Hadjitodorov</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Todor Tagarev</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scientific Research and Development in NATO</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Military Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">81-90</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue></record></records></xml>
