"China and the People's Liberation Army defines the terms "great power" and "developing state" and suggests that the purposes of their militaries are fundamentally different. Solomon M. Karmel works to debunk frequently unquestioned myths about China's status as a great power. He employs extensive research of Chinese and foreign sources, secret and public, to understand short-comings in the strategic, military, and industrial overhaul of China's military-industrial complex.
His thematic framework and case-study analysis have important implications for the study of developing-world militaries and East Asian security."--BOOK JACKET.
