Shen Buhai (simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese: 申不害) (d.337 BC) was a Chinese Legalist who was a rather successful chief minister under Marquis Zhao of Han. According to Han Feizi, he championed the concept of Shu and wrote a then extinct two chapter text, the Shenzi. Some modern scholars argued that his legalism was more a blend of Taoism and Legalism than just purely the conceptual Shu school of Legalism.
