  • Political Succession and Leadership Issues in China: Implications for U.S
    Order Code RL30990 Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Political Succession and Leadership Issues in China: Implications for U.S. Policy Updated September 30, 2002 name redacted Specialist in Asian Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Political Succession and Leadership Issues in China: Implications for U.S. Policy Summary In 2002 and 2003, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) will be making key leadership changes within the government and the Communist Party. A number of current senior leaders, including Party Secretary Jiang Zemin, Premier Zhu Rongji, and National Peoples’ Congress Chairman Li Peng, are scheduled to be stepping down from their posts, and it is not yet clear who will be assuming these positions from among the younger generation of leaders – the so-called “fourth generation,” comprised of those born in the 1940s and early 1950s. It is expected that new leaders will be ascending to positions at the head of at least two and possibly all three of the PRC’s three vertical political structures: the Chinese Communist Party; the state government bureaucracy; and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). During a period likely to last into 2003, the succession process remains very much in flux. Some who follow Beijing politics have raised questions about how vigorously China’s current senior leaders will adhere to their self-imposed term limitations. Party Secretary Jiang Zemin, for instance, is expected to try to keep his position as head of China’s military on the grounds that the global anti-terrorism campaign and internal challenges to Chinese rule create a special need now for consistent leadership.

  • Chinese P Chinese People's Liberation Army: Reduction in F
    NIDS Security Reports Chinese People’s Liberation Army: Reduction in Force by 500,000 and Trend of Modernization Katsuhiko Mayama Introduction At the 15th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in September 1997, Chairman Jiang Zemin, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, announced the plan to reduce the military strength by 500,000 by the year 2000 in his report, and this reduction program was launched in 1998. The detail is not clear, but the target was achieved in the first year, and the reduction campaign is in progress in the second year, 1999. At the First Plenum of the 9th National People’s Congress (NPC) held in March 1998, Zhu Rongji was elected as Premier of the State Council to succeed to Li Peng. At assuming the office, Zhu Rongji stated positively that he would plunge a scalpel into three problems awaiting solutions in China and execute reforms (reform of state enterprises, financial reform and administrative reform) with a decisive stance. His reforms are being conducted simultaneously with the reduction in force. Reduction in force of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) is under way in spite of the increased difficulties although a number of workers have been laid off and unemployment has become a serious issue as a result of the development of this oppressive or bold reforms. The author attempts to delve into the conditions, significance and direction of the reduction in force. The People’s Liberation Army has also been proceeding with modernization with a goal to win in local wars that involve high-technology conditions.

  • U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress
    U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Shirley A. Kan Specialist in Asian Security Affairs October 27, 2014 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL32496 U.S.-China Military Contacts: Issues for Congress Summary This CRS Report, updated through the 113th Congress, discusses policy issues regarding military- to-military (mil-to-mil) contacts with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and records major contacts and crises since 1993. The United States suspended military contacts with China and imposed sanctions on arms sales in response to the Tiananmen Crackdown in 1989. In 1993, President Clinton reengaged with the top PRC leadership, including China’s military, the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). Renewed military exchanges with the PLA have not regained the closeness reached in the 1980s, when U.S.-PRC strategic alignment against the Soviet Union included U.S. arms sales to China. Improvements and deteriorations in overall bilateral engagement have affected military contacts, which were close in 1997-1998 and 2000, but marred by the 1995-1996 Taiwan Strait crisis, mistaken NATO bombing of a PRC embassy in 1999, the EP-3 aircraft collision crisis in 2001, and the PLA’s aggressive maritime and air confrontations. Issues for Congress include whether the Administration complies with legislation overseeing dealings with the PLA and pursues contacts with the PLA that advance a prioritized set of U.S. security interests, especially the operational safety of U.S. military personnel. Oversight legislation includes the Foreign Relations Authorization Act for FY1990-FY1991 (P.L. 101-246) and National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY2000 (P.L.

  • Projecting the Next Politburo Standing Committee
    Projecting the Next Politburo Standing Committee Alice Miller1 Analysis of appointments to the Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party shows that over the past two decades three simple rules have been followed. These rules offer a means to project appointments to the Standing Committee at the upcoming 19th Party Congress in 2017. Whether in fact the Xi leadership follows the precedents set down in past appointments or instead sets them aside offers a key benchmark against which to assess Xi Jinping’s strength as party leader. The Politburo Standing Committee has been the party’s key decision-making body since the beginning of the reform era in the late 1970s. Appointments to the body are routinely made at the party’s national congress, held every five years, and the subsequent first plenum of the new Central Committee appointed by the party congress. The party has never publicly explained how it makes decisions as to whom it appoints to the Politburo Standing Committee. Observers outside the party in China, Hong Kong, and elsewhere have filled this information vacuum with speculation based on presumptions of factional competition, bargaining among factional chieftains, and intense jockeying among potential candidates in the run-up to a party congress. Three Rules Close analysis of Standing Committee appointments over the past four party congresses, however, sheds different light on leadership procedures in this highly sensitive area. Specifically, examination of Standing Committee leader retirements and appointments at the 1997 15th, 2002 16th, 2007 17th, and 2012 18th Party Congresses shows that three basic rules have been followed: • First, retirement of both Standing Committee and regular members of the Politburo has followed a defined age limit.

China’s Post-Deng Military Leadership: New Faces, New Trends David Shambaugh June 1998 1 2 China’s Post-Deng Military Leadership: New Faces, New Trends* David Shambaugh It is a pleasure to be here at Stanford to discuss China’s new military leadership, and to share some preliminary findings from my research on the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). One key feature of the new leadership in China today, following the passing of patriarch Deng Xiaoping, are the new faces to be found in the military. The PLA High Command today (see Appendix) is almost entirely new. There has been almost total turnover of the top twenty to thirty military officers in China during the last three years. This includes all the commanders, deputy commanders, and political commissars in all seven military region commands; the General Staff, Logistics, and Political Departments; the two major educational institutions of the PLA, the National Defense University and the Academy of Military Sciences; the Commission on Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense and its successor body the general Armaments Department, and other bodies. The Central Military Commis- sion itself has seen more than half of its membership turn over in the last few years. Only the top echelon of the Second Artillery, China’s ballistic missile forces, has gone relatively untouched.

  • Zhang Wannian: a Political Biography
    Mulvenon, China Leadership Monitor, No.1 Zhang Wannian: A Political Biography James Mulvenon The political biography of Zhang that follows is the first of a series of sketches of politically important Chinese military leaders. Zhang Wannian’s Military Career General Zhang Wannian was born in Shandong province in August 1928. He joined the PLA's Eighth Route Army in 1944, placing him among the third generation of military leadership. Early in his career, he served as a troop leader, communications officer, and political instructor in units subordinate to the Fourth Field Army, moving southward with those units later identified as the New Fourth Army. He fought in Xinkailing and the Dashan Blocking Action, for which he may have received a merit citation, as well as the Liaoxi-Shenyang, Peiping-Tientsin, Hengyang-Baoji, and Guangxi campaigns. After 1949, he followed a traditional, combat officer promotion path through the ranks of the 41st Corps, based in the Guangzhou Military Region, eventually rising to command of the 367th Regiment. He did not serve in Korea. Some Hong Kong accounts state that he participated in 1953 defense of Dongshan Island, but the unit involved was 122nd Division of the 41st Army (corps), not Zhang's 123rd Division. From 1958-61, he attended the Nanjing Military Academy, which was then headed by Zhang Zhen. Following his stint as regimental commander, Zhang was promoted to staff officer position in the Guangzhou Military Region headquarters. In 1968, he was promoted to command the 127th Division of the 43rd Corps, which was also subordinate to the Guangzhou Military Region.
