Han Fei
ILI-Q "비평가" Political Philosopher · Chinese · 3rd c. BCWarring States period Chinese philosopher (c. 280–233 BC). He synthesised Legalist thought in the Han Feizi, systematising the theory of ruler governance through "law, statecraft, and power." His work was deeply admired by King Zheng (later First Emperor of Qin) and became the theoretical foundation of the Qin unification. Imprisoned and poisoned by his former classmate Li Si — a paradigmatic case of the intellectual destroyed by the ruler he empowered.

세계관 & 태도
The world is complex and inherently good (positivism). Deep trust in human possibility and social transformation as the premise of action. A direct statement that "the reality that ministers pursue self-interest exists." Affirming only the "present reality" of human self-interested motivation sensed by -Ni-p — stated positively as Legalist observation — without relying on the "absent reality" of human goodness or moral improvement. The governance theory of law (法), technique (術), and power (勢) was a control apparatus calmly designed from that observed reality.
변화에 대한 태도: The approach to King Zheng of Qin that ultimately led to his own death — pointing the direction of transformation while losing his life to the very power he sought to advise.
