has really good information about Legalism in Ancient China

In Chinese history, Legalism (Chinese: ; literally "School of Law"; pinyin: fă jiā) was one of the main philosophic currents during the Warring States Period, although the term itself was invented in the Han Dynasty and thus does not refer to an organized 'school' of thought.

See, also, China: A Legal History. It was both the spirit and the intent of Han Fei's legalism, as it came, from time to time, to dominate Chinese law, that punishment for all crimes would be harsh and universal.
