Abstract

Psychological operations as a tool to influence the enemy’s conscience and behaviour were widely spread over the whole human history. Despite the stigmatisation of psychological operations (or psychological warfare) they were an integral component of state measures designed to achieve national objectives. Amid the development of the Internet and digital technologies, the use of psychological operations becomes even more frequent and inventive. The damage caused by their usage increases as well. Therefore, in order to limit uncontrolled use of psychological operations in violation of human rights and freedoms, it is necessary to regulate the procedure and conditions for conducting psychological operations in domestic law based on ethical principles and a human-oriented approach. At the same time, legal framework should include certain provisions to protect the state and its citizens from psychological influence of the enemy country.
