China's PLA Political-Military Strategy for the Past 30 & Next 30 Years


 China's political-military strategies are examined within the framework of the Primary Stage of Socialism which replaced Mao's class revolutionary approach. Starting briefly from the Mao era (30 years before Deng), the presentation will focus on the Reform Period (30 years after Deng). Stages of political-military strategies are related to the changing political-military doctrines of each executive of the party-state. These, in turn, are identified with the anticipated types of imperialist conflicts and threats and to the kinds of political-military policies designed to deal with them. Among the issues discussed will be the dominant Chinese view of what the world might look like in 2050, what China's role will be and why no overt, direct war with the US until at least 2050.


Presented by Al Sargis, Founder of the Friedrich Engels Institute for Marxist War & the Military (FEIMWAMA) and Moderator of ChinaStudyGroupBoston & MARMILIST Yahoo groups. He has been to China 10 times, including presentations to the Chinese Academy of Military Science and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
