Overview
Modern studies of civil-military relations recognise that the military is separate from civil society, with its own norms and values, principles of organisation and regulations. Key issues of concern include the means by which - and the extent to which - the civil power controls the military; and also the ways in which military values and approaches permeate and affect wider society. This book examines these issues in relation to China, covering the full range of Chinese history from the Zhou, Qin and Han dynasties up to the Communist takeover in 1949.
