The Rise and Fall of an Officer Corps

Více o knize

Exploring a unique period in China's military history, this book examines the brief emergence of a professional, apolitical officer corps in the mid-twentieth century. It delves into the factors that contributed to its formation, the reasons for its eventual decline, and the implications of this transformation for China's domestic and international relations. The narrative highlights the distinct nature of China's military, which operates under the authority of the Chinese Communist Party rather than as a national force.
