The Particularity and Gist of Power

Power is a kind of social relations.One,in possession of power,could exert compulsory influence or command on the others and impel or force them to do something or nothing in accordance with his will and value standard.Moreover,power is the pillar of the other two essential factors of law,namely,the freedom of law and the right of law.Historically,much attention paid to power begins with the enlightenment of the theory of separation of power,the development of contemporary public law theory,and especially the expansion of government function resulting in the ubiquity of administrative power.Therefore,there is no law without power,and the unlawful power should not be permitted.
