China's Maritime Gray Zone Operations (Studies in Chinese Maritime Development)

Chinaï¿½s maritime ï¿½gray zoneï¿½ operations represent a new challenge for the U.S. Navy and the sea services of our allies, partners, and friends in maritime East Asia. There, Beijing is waging what some Chinese sources term a ï¿½war without gunsmoke.ï¿½ Already winning in important areas, China could gain far more if left unchecked. One of Chinaï¿½s greatest advantages thus far has been foreign difficulty in understanding the situation, let alone determining an effective response. With contributions from some of the worldï¿½s leading subject matter experts, this volume aims to close that gap by explaining the forces and doctrines driving Chinaï¿½s paranaval expansion, operating in the ï¿½gray zoneï¿½ between war and peace.

The book covers Chinaï¿½s major maritime forces beyond core gray-hulled Navy units, with particular focus on Chinaï¿½s second and third sea forces: the ï¿½white-hulledï¿½ Coast Guard and ï¿½blue-hulledï¿½ Maritime Militia. Increasingly, these paranaval forces, and the ï¿½gray zoneï¿½ in which they typically operate, are on the frontlines of Chinaï¿½s seaward expansion.
