China and the Arms Trade by Anne Gilks,Gerald Segal Pdf

First Published in 1985, China and the Arms Trade offers a detailed analysis of Chinese arms aid policy to examine Beijing’s changing nature of foreign and domestic policy. Military aid, like war, is a continuation of foreign policy by other means. The previous perception of China offering special and selfless military assistance seems no longer accurate. The nature of these Chinese aid now appears more complex and contradictory. China, now like other great powers, take an active role in the lucrative international arms bazaar. As one Chinese official said about his country’s more hard-headed arms sales policy, ‘we cannot sell at friendship prices all the time’. This book is a must read for scholars and researchers of Chinese foreign policy, strategic studies, Chinese politics, international relations and defence studies.

Explaining and Influencing Chinese Arms Transfers by Karl W. Eikenberry Pdf

China's role in missile and nuclear weapons proliferation has become one of 3 issues -- along with human rights and trade -- upon which the U.S. has focused its reassessment of U.S. policy toward China, and whether to attach conditions to the renewal of China's MFN trade benefits. Addresses the factors motivating Chinese conventional arms sales and speculates on means to influence them. Describes the history of PRC weapons exports, then examines various supply- and demand-side reasons for these transfers. Discusses sources of arms transfer restraints.

Chinese Arms Exports by Evan S. Medeiros,Bates Gill Pdf

Global arms proliferation continues to be a key concern for the United States, particularly the export role of the People's Republic of China (PRC). Although China experienced a significant decline in its arms exports in the 1990s (down from the boom times of the 1980s), the PRC provides a significant array of lethal weapons and sensitive defense technologies to states around the world. These exports provide an invaluable means by which to assess the progress and performance of China's military-industrial complex. Moreover, these products may present the very systems and technological know-how that the United States and allied forces will encounter in a future conflict.

Chinese Arms Transfers by Bates Gill Pdf

This book is the first in eight years to address the purposes, patterns, and prospects of Chinese arms transfers, and the only book to address China's recent and provocative rise to prominence as an arms trader since the mid-1980s. Focusing on the 1980s and the prospects for the 1990s, the work analyzes the principal arms trade relationships of the People's Republic of China to provide a greater understanding and more nuanced insight into the arms trade policies and goals of the world's fourth largest arms supplier. This study finds that the economic motive for arms exports--the generating of foreign currency--while important, does not fully or even adequately explain why the Chinese export arms. Rather, Chinese arms exports should be seen in the light of political and strategic motivations, which are often more important. This book should appeal to both scholars and policymakers in the field of international relations.

The Dynamics of Russian Weapon Sales to China by Stephen Blank Pdf

Russia has recently sold or transferred many military weapons or technologies to China. Russian state policy has also officially joined with China in a relationship described as a strategic cooperative partnership. Some Russian diplomats also say that there is virtually complete identity with China on all issues of Asian and global security. Dr. Stephen Blank examines this relationship carefully for what it reveals about both states' international security policies.

China-Israel Arms Trade and Co-Operation by Islam Aiadi Pdf

The present study examines the development of the China-Israel arms trade relations that started back in 1979. The implications for the future of the Middle East are discussed within the assumptions of a rise of China as a major international key player, together with, or even ahead of, the United States. Israel had seen China as a goal to achieve its political strategic goals. For China, the military cooperation with Israel would give the Asian power the opportunity of upgrading and modernizing its military force through obtaining the western-style technologies from Israel. The study raises the question of whether the military cooperation between the two countries has achieved, or likely to achieve, its declared goals and hidden agenda. The study found that for China, the bilateral cooperation efforts are likely to pay off. For Israel, however, the long-term political goals of influencing China to stop its military support to Iran and diplomatic support to the Palestinians are still elusive or even mythic.

China and Intervention at the UN Security Council by Courtney J. Fung Pdf

What explains China's response to intervention at the UN Security Council? China and Intervention at the UN Security Council argues that status is an overlooked determinant in understanding its decisions, even in the apex cases that are shadowed by a public discourse calling for foreign-imposed regime change in Sudan, Libya, and Syria. It posits that China reconciles its status dilemma as it weighs decisions to intervene: seeking recognition from both its intervention peer groups of great powers and developing states. Understanding the impact and scope conditions of status answers why China has taken certain positions regarding intervention and how these positions were justified. Foreign policy behavior that complies with status, and related social factors like self-image and identity, means that China can select policy options bearing material costs. China and Intervention at the UN Security Council offers a rich study of Chinese foreign policy, going beyond works available in breadth and in depth. It draws on an extensive collection of data, including over two hundred interviews with UN officials and Chinese foreign policy elites, participant observation at UN Headquarters, and a dataset of Chinese-language analysis regarding foreign-imposed regime change and intervention. The book concludes with new perspectives on the malleability of China's core interests, insights about the application of status for cooperation and the implications of the status dilemma for rising powers.

Chinese Arms Transfers by BPI Information Services,DIANE Publishing Company Pdf

In July 1987, the U.S. began Persian Gulf escort operations for reflagged Kuwait tankers to guarantee safe passage through vital int'l shipping lanes threatened by the escalating Iran-Iraq War. This task was complicated for the American Navy by Iran's deployment of shore batteries of Chinese-manufactured HY-2 Silkworm anti ship missiles. Washington negotiated with Beijing, seeking to deny further anti ship missile deliveries to Teheran. However, disagreements over arms transfer issues prove a recurring source of bilateral friction. This book identifies recurring patterns in the global arms trade to put the study of China into perspective.
