'''5th Generation Warfare''' ('''5GW''') is a modern strategic concept describing conflict conducted primarily through non‑kinetic, '''influence‑based''' means rather than traditional military operations; 5GW may be a commitment to '''multi-generational efforts''' to disguise its progress. It focuses on shaping perceptions through mechanisims such as [[Information Warefare]] to control the narratives such as [[Operation Mockingbird]]; paid protesters and political actors<ref>[[Operation BOOT]]; [[Operation AJAX]]</ref>; maniplulation of [[economics]] to influence both the individual and societal priorities and social behaviours; control of the educational systems and institutions to perpetuate desired thought; funding of research grants to justify the desired narrative; unofficial alliance with [[Facism|big business]] to perform desired tasks not subject to public scrutiny; 'donations', 'home visits' or 'blackmail' to control politicians; the application of the [[Economic Hitman]] model<ref>[[Perkins, John]], ''The New Confessions of an Economic Hitman''</ref>; shaping demographics such as by migrating desired populations for desired outcomes, sometimes called [[Fifth Column|fifth column action]]; all without openly declaring war on the target or engaging in conventional combat.  The sole doctrine of '''5GW''' is '''to make war on a target population without the target even realising that they are at war'''; put simply it is '''pan-societal psychological warfare'''.

Civily the [[Arab Spring]] is a significantly arguable example that consequentially lead to not only civil outcomes, but the fusion of the civil and religious world in said countries.  Again the [[Counter Reformation]] as executed during [[Holy Roman Empire]] is another excellent example.
