Abstract
Hybrid warfare can be processed as one of the most frequent concepts in the literature on modern wars. The Islamic Republic of Iran can be considered one of the most important countries targeted by hybrid warfare. In the meantime, various theories have been proposed to understand hybrid warfare. Understanding the basic theory for analyzing and understanding the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran can pave the way for studies of hybrid warfare, especially the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran. In this regard, this research seeks to examine different theories of hybrid warfare and present a basic theory for understanding the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran, and seeks to answer the question of what is Mukhtar's theory for understanding and analyzing the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran? The present research is important in two respects: first, from a theoretical perspective, which helps specialized studies in the field of hybrid warfare and the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran, and second, from an approach and application perspective, which has operational implications for designing strategies to counter the hybrid warfare of the West against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
