Army War College (U.S.) Editat de Strategic Studies Institute (U.S.), Andrew Scobell, David Lai, Roy Kamphausenen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 sep 2014 – vârsta de la 16 ani
The
importance
of
China
stems
not
only
from
its
current
international
role
and
its
influence
on
the
Asia-Pacific
region
in
particular,
but
also
because
China’s
impact
on
global
developments
will
likely
continue
to
grow.
One
of
our
enduring
imperatives
is
to
accurately
survey
China’s
experiences
as
a
means
to
grasp
its
existing
perceptions,
motivations,
and
ambitions.
More
than
ever,
solid,
evidence-based
evaluation
of
what
the
PLA
has
learned
from
the
use
of
force
and
conflict
elsewhere
in
the
world
is
needed
to
shed
light
on
the
prospects
for
its
cooperation,
or
rivalry,
with
the
international
community.
This
volume
provides
unique,
valuable
insights
on
how
the
PLA
has
applied
the
lessons
learned
from
others’
military
actions
to
its
own
strategic
planning.
