Abstract

The paper examines whether cyber volunteers are reshaping the modern conflicts. The case study serving as the proof-of-hypothesis for the paper is the Russian war against Ukraine. The hypothesis is that such groups will be part of future conflicts. We examine the conditions for group formation. We find that conditions will be present and such groups will become part of war and also of peacetime in the coming years. Hence, we advocate – de lege ferenda – that public policies and capabilities shall be adapted to this new reality accordingly, taking into account the capabili- ties, volatility and value-driven nature of these groups.
