The operational code of Mao Zedong: defensive or offensive realist? / Huiyun Feng - 2005

Describes a computer based analysis of Mao's public foreign policy speeches used to determine whether Mao's belief system reflected the influence of a defensive or offensive strategic culture. Compares and contrasts the findings with previous analysis done by Alastair Johnston, and considers how this is related to China's grand strategy.
