Description
The authors of this report explore Chinese military thinking about future command and control, with a specific focus on the prospect of China adopting mission command--that is, delegating some amount of decisionmaking authorities to subordinates, with the expectation that they act within preset, broad guidelines from superiors--in contrast to China's traditional centralized command.
