Since naval development requires huge financial resources and mostly takes place within the context of transnational industrial partnerships, this study also consciously adopts an industry perspective. The systemic problems involved in warship production and the associated material, financial, technological, and political requirements currently remain overlooked aspects in the case of China. Drawing on first-hand working experience in the naval shipbuilding industry, the author provides transparent criteria for the evaluation of different naval technologies' strategic value, which other researchers can draw upon as a basis for further research in such diverse fields as International Security Studies, Naval Warfare Studies, Chinese Studies, and International Relations. 000727865 650_0 $$aSea-power$$zChina. 000727865 651_0 $$aChina$$xRelations. 000727865 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKirchberger, Sarah$$tAssessing China's Naval Power : Technological Innovation, Economic Constraints, and Strategic Implications$$dBerlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg,c2015$$z9783662471265 000727865 830_0 $$aGlobal power shift. 000727865 852__ $$bebk 000727865 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-662-47127-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000727865 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:727865$$pGLOBAL_SET 000727865 980__ $$aEBOOK 000727865 980__ $$aBIB 000727865 982__ $$aEbook 000727865 983__ $$aOnline 000727865 994__ $$a92$$bISE
