In Right, Power, and Faquanism, Tong Zhiwei proposes that right and power are ultimately a unified entity named faquan, and that the purpose of law should be to establish a balanced faquan structure and to promote its preservation and proliferation.

In Right, Power, and Faquanism, Tong Zhiwei proposes that right and power are ultimately a unified entity which can be named “faquan,” and that the purpose of law should be to establish a balanced faquan structure and to promote its preservation and proliferation. “Faquan” is thus a jurisprudential category reflecting the understanding of the unity of right and power. It has interest protected by the law and property with defined ownership as its content, and manifests itself as the external forms of jural right, freedom, liberty, jural power, public function, authority, competence, privilege, and immunity, etc. Faquanism relies mainly on six basic concepts (faquan, right, power, quan, residual quan and duty) to analyze the content of interests and property in all legal phenomena.

Tong Zhiwei, Ph.D in Law (1994, Wuhan University), is Professor of Law at East China University of Political Science and Law. He has published many articles and books on jurisprudence and constitutional law, including Constitutional Reforms in Contemporary China (City University of Hong Kong Press, 2016) and Forms of State Structure (Peking University Press, second edition, 2015).
