A.T.Mahan emphasizes the way to perform sea power is the way to apply navy strategy, which means a country¡¦s sea power is closely related to its national navy strategy development. Julian Corbett also argues that the main idea of navy's strategy lies in the competition of sea supremacy. Sea supremacy means a country keeps and controls the marine communication lines for its military and commercial purposes.
The Communist China is facing changes domestically and internationally. The increasing dependence of economic growth on petroleum and natural gas import and maritime safety makes the Communist China has to guarantee the sea routes unblocked. Self-regarded as a big country along the seashore , the Communist China is promoting marine consciousness of the whole nation and the idea of sea power. The former navy chief commander Liu Hhua-qing had advocated constantly since the eighties ' to strengthen sea power and navy building. Since then, the Communist China has positively increased its domestic maritime activities in every field, which means it is now involved in more influence on the international order in the Asian-Pacific area.
The thesis is mainly to analyse the Communist China¡¦s developing sea power on its relevant conditions, environments and concrete conduct. The thesis also studies and judges how China¡¦s sea power development influences the stability in the Asian-Pacific area. Focal points of the thesis include the truth of China¡¦s sea power development; whether the Communist China will develop the aircraft carrier fleet as being the rigional military and economic super power; the strategic consideration about Taiwan from American, Japanese and Chinese points of view; and whether the responses of the Asian-Pacific countries will cause the regional arm race and proliferation of weapons. The purpose of the thesis is to answer these questions.
