| Summary/Abstract |
Considering the growth, broadening national interests and the spectacular rise in
energy requirements that resulted in the import of 4.3 million bbl/d of crude oil in
2010-for China, ensuring mechanisms that guarantee energy supply to a booming
domestic economy is becoming increasingly vital. Beijing recognizes a strong
navy would constitute one such mechanism, and has for some time been in the
process of upgrading its naval force. A strong navy would serve other interests as
well. For one, it could help Beijing increase the chances of a favorable outcome
in case of a conflict with Taiwan. It could also allow China to settle the numerous
territorial claims in its littoral close to its ideal, with little involvement from nonclaimant states. Additionally, it could allow Beijing to project power further in
the Asia-Pacific. This article is an assessment of the various factors driving naval
modernization in the People's Republic of China (PRC). It also details China's
current naval capabilities and the recent trends in military expenditure. It will
conclude by suggesting that though China's navy is being rapidly built up, it
would be imprudent to assume that such modernization necessarily indicates future
Chinese bellicosity; and even if hegemony were a goal for the PRC, concluding that
naval aggression will be the most efficient way for Beijing to realize such ambitions
would be erroneous.

| Summary/Abstract |
The Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN)'s recent accomplishments are impressive but have not gone beyond 'pocket excellence', as its overall structure and equipment are still out of date. However, the PLAN now has ships and powerful weapons that enable it to extend its combat range and engage its foes in a relatively large-scale maritime campaign beyond the Yellow Sea-its traditional battlefield. Depending on the nature of operations, it may already be able to carry out blue water missions around the first island chain in the West Pacific. Yet this article argues that due to its inherent weaknesses the PLAN has so far positioned itself as a regional navy, not a global one, in terms of its missions and capability building. On the other hand, the notion of a regional navy is open ended. As the PLAN acquires more ocean-going warships, its combat reach will incrementally expand, and its current defensive posture will acquire more teeth.

| Summary/Abstract |
Developments at both the doctrinal and operational level suggest that the ‘post-modernisation’ of China’s PLA Navy (PLAN) has started. Issues such as the maritime disputes in the East and South China Seas and how to create a network of bases or ‘footholds’ outside Asia might slow down or temporarily halt this process. However, as China’s economic presence expands on a global scale, its security interests and those of the international community will overlap increasingly with one another. Consequently, once its transformation has been completed, the PLAN is likely to become a global and cooperative force.
