| Description: |
China's Military in Transition is the most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the Chinese military ever published. It contains fourteen chapters by many of the world's leading experts of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA), and offers numerous insights into how China's military modernization will affect the balance of global power in the twenty-first century. |
| Synopsis: |
China's Military in Transition is the most comprehensive study of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) ever published. Drawing upon a broad range of documentary sources and interviews, many of the world's leading specialists on the Chinese military provide in-depth and expert analyses of China's military modernization programme. This unprecedented volume covers many aspects of the PLA on the eve of the twenty-first century: party-army relations and the role of the PLA in domestic Chinese politics; the changing officer corps; the paramilitary People's Armed Police; troop reorganizations and the demobilization programme; the national security and defence policy decision-making processes; the military-industrial complex and defence industrial conversion; defence finance, budget, and training; weapons procurement; nuclear force modernization; threat perceptions; power projection capabilities; and the military balance in the Taiwan Strait. |
