This book makes sense of Chinese priorities in its naval modernization and argues that the orientation of Beijing's choices concerning its naval forces can essentially be explained by China's position as a potential regional hegemony. Lim highlights how a rising state develops naval power to fulfil its security objectives, a theoretical perspective that goes further than the sole Chinese case. 410 0$aCorbett Centre for Maritime Policy Studies Series 606 $aSea-power$zChina 606 $aNaval strategy$zChina 607 $aChina$xMilitary policy 607 $aChina$xStrategic aspects 607 $aPacific Area$xStrategic aspects 615 0$aSea-power 615 0$aNaval strategy 676 $a359/.030951 700 $aLim$b Yves-Heng$f1979-$01573877 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787630803321 996 $aChina's naval power$93849801 997 $aUNINA
