Features: The author combines the paradigm shift in administrative law caused by the dramatic changes in Chinese society, examining and analyzing the allocation, operation, and supervision of administrative power from a new perspective of the administrative process. It explores the dynamic interaction and mutual influence between the legal status and rights and obligations of administrative subjects and administrative counterparts in the administrative process. It investigates the comprehensive and all-round supervision of supervisory subjects over the pre-event, in-event, and post-event processes of administrative subjects exercising administrative power within the framework of the constitution. Taking the administrative process as the starting point, it integrates subjects, actions, value goals, principles, and systems into a unified system for holistic research, highlighting its scientific and systematic nature. If traditional administrative law research on a specific administrative act only examines a point within the administrative act system, then administrative process research examines a line and chain composed of different administrative act points, and further studies the plane and body based on this. This broadens the research perspective and enriches the content. Starting from the administrative process allows for a more macroscopic analysis and research of common issues in different stages or links of the operation of administrative power.
