초록

While China aspires to the status of a regional great power, its leaders perceive the United States as a hegemon in a unipolar world. Using information operations and Sun Tzu’s philosophy, the Chinese will pursue a holistic asymmetric strategy to achieve their strategic aims. While avoiding the likelihood of a conventional conflict over Taiwan, China will succeed in undermining the U.S. for four main reasons: China knows the U.S. better than the U.S. knows China; China exercises power by the denial of information to the U.S.; China has limited strategic goals and the initiative and, finally, China has a unified strategy while the U.S. has none.

Abstract

Using information operations and Sun Tzu’s philosophy, the Chinese will pursue a holistic asymmetric strategy to achieve their strategic aims. While avoiding the likelihood of a conventional conflict over Taiwan, China will succeed in undermining the U.S. for four main reasons: China knows the U.S. better than the U.S. knows China; China exercises power by the denial of information to the U.S.; China has limited strategic goals and the initiative and, finally, China has a unified strategy while the U.S. has none.
