Current internal events in China are analyzed to determine their effects of international relations and on formulation of PACOM strategy. The legacy of a four thousand year Chinese civilization is clashing with a revolutionary communist society. Economic modernization is occurring at a rapid pace, without any corresponding political and ideological reforms, further exacerbating an already volatile situation. PACOM strategy cannot influence internal events in China. PACOM planners must, therefore, formulate strategy designed to contain spill-over. This spill-over may occur as a result of four distinct scenarios: a civil war in China; Chinese maritime aggression; a PRC conflict with Taiwan; or a dispute between China and her continental neighbors. Internal instability in China makes these scenarios near-term possibilities, and will drive continuous reassessment of PACOM strategy. CHINA, THREAT, PACIFIC, STRATEGY, MILITARY, PACOM.
