'''Han Feizi''' was a Chinese philosopher. He created a philosophy known as [[Legalism]] based on the ideas of [[Shang Yang]]. This philosophy emphasizes the need to promote the ruler's authority through strict laws and enforcement. This is in contrast to [[Confucianism]] which emphasized moral duty and the need for superiors, including the ruler, to set a good example in this regard. 
    
''Han Feizi'' is also the name of Han Fei's book, in which he lays out the concept of legalism.
