Description

Understand the mechanics behind China's rapid rise to superpower status with this deep dive into foreign technology acquisition. Published by Routledge as part of the Asian Security Studies series, this book examines the unique systems China has used since 1949 to accelerate its development. Readers will learn how China operates a massive system for spotting and transferring foreign technology. This strategy is designed to boost both civilian and military sectors while reducing the costs associated with basic research. By utilizing these methods, China seeks to strengthen its power at home and abroad without facing the same political risks that liberal societies encounter during creative development. This work challenges the idea that China is merely in a perpetual state of catching up. Instead, it provides a serious analysis of how these hybrid methods function as a deliberate part of national strategy. It is an essential resource for those studying military intelligence, espionage, and the changing landscape of global security.
