Edition DescriptionNew Edition

SynopsisChina's information war against the United States is clever technically, broadly applied and successful. The intelligence community in the U.S. has publicly stated this is a kind of war we do not know how to fight--yet it is the U.S. military that developed and expanded the doctrine of information war. In fact, the U.S. military is at a disadvantage because it is part of a democratic, decentralized system of government that separates the state from commercial business. China's political systems are more easily adapted to this form of warfare, as their recent land seizures in the South China Sea demonstrate. We call this annexation, when it is a new form of conquest., China's information war against the United States is technically clever, broadly applied and successful. The US intelligence community has publicly stated this is a kind of war we do not know how to fight. China's political systems are more easily adapted to this form of warfare, as their recent land seizures in the South China Sea demonstrate.
