History Of The People's Liberation Army
The history of the People's Liberation Army began in 1927 with the start of the Chinese Civil War and spans to the present, having developed from a peasant guerrilla force into the largest armed force in the world. Historical background Throughout the centuries, two tendencies have influenced the role of the military in national life, one in peacetime and the other in times of upheaval. In times of peace and stability, military forces were firmly subordinated to civilian control.

After consolidating power, the new ruler or his successors subordinated the military to civil ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
