First published in 1982, this book remains the classic account of
the arms trade in warlord China. The second edition includes a new
preface that reframes the argument within the paradigm of critical
militarism and state criminality. Arming the Chinese tells the
story of the Western and Japanese merchants and governments who
provided weapons to warlords for their expanding armies. Although
the warlords were hearty individualists who retained control over
domestic affairs and rarely relied on single foreign suppliers, the
armaments trade, Chan argues, was a new form of imperialism, which
perpetrated the continued Western and Japanese domination of China.
