West - China: will there be a cognitive war?
Event co-organized by Asia Society France, Asialyst, Inalco and the Institut de recherche stratégique de l'école militaire (IRSEM).
In the field of security, a new modern form of conflictuality is increasingly making the headlines: cognitive warfare. Physical confrontation is no longer an end in itself, but the ultimate stage in a modern war orchestrated by the enemy, through the action of influence on the brains of individuals. With the accelerated development of social networks, this war is becoming less and less futuristic.
This conversation will focus on the invisible battlefield that may already have begun between the West and China, the world's 3rd largest military power. It will analyze its mechanisms and the strategies at play.
