Seller's Description:
Good. xix, [1], 95 pages. Tables. Bibliography. Highlighting/underlining. Name of previous owner present. Some yellow highlighting noted. From an on-line posting: "James Mulvenon is Vice-President of Defense Group, Inc. ¹s Intelligence Division and Director of DGI¹s Center for Intelligence Research and Analysis. Dr. Mulvenon's research focuses on Chinese C4ISR, defense research/development/acquisition organizations and policy, strategic weapons programs, cryptography, and the military and civilian implications of the information revolution in China. Dr. Mulvenon is a founding member of the Cyber Conflict Studies Association, and was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. His media comments have appeared in the Washington Post, New York Times, Time Magazine, Newsweek, Christian Science Monitor, International Herald Tribune, and Los Angeles Times, as well as on CNN, and CBS News. He received his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California, Los Angeles. The expansion of military-to-military relations between the United States and China has constituted one of the most important developments in Sino-U.S. relations. U.S. officials will need to understand the changing composition and character of the highest levels of the Chinese officer corps. This report examines long-term trends in Chinese military institutional development and assesses their impacts upon the future evolution of the People's Liberation Army (PLA). Western scholars have long argued that the PLA officer corps has become more professional since 1978, but many of these studies have lacked hard data from which to analyze demographic changes. This report evaluates the scope and relative success of three professionalizing trends (education, functional specialization, and retirement norms) among PLA officers. The report concludes that the PLA has undergone a profound generational shift from the revolutionary generation to a new post-Liberation cohort.
