"Why did the Chinese Empire collapse and why did it take so long for a new government to reunite China? Modern Chinese Warfare, 1795-1989 seeks to answer these questions by exploring the most important domestic and international conflicts over the past 200 years, from the last half of the Qing Empire through to modern-day China. This book reveals how most of China's wars during this period were fought to preserve Chinese unity, and examines the cyclical pattern of imperial decline, fall, domestic chaos and, finally, the creation of a new unifying dynasty." "Exposing China as an imperialist country, and one which has often manipulated western powers in its favor, Bruce A. Elleman seeks to redress the view of China as a victimized nation. Modern Chinese Warfare, 1795-1989 is a concise survey of the military history of China, and makes a valuable contribution to the debate over whether China poses a military threat to the West today."--BOOK JACKET.
