防卫

• Pinyin: fáng wèi
• Desglose de hanzi: 防 = 阝+ 方 (earthen embankment — a barrier); 卫 = pictograph of a person patrolling to guard (defend)

Significado

Defensa; autodefensa.

Frequently appears in legal contexts as 正当防卫 (legitimate self-defense) — a key concept in Chinese criminal law. Also used in military and geopolitical discourse. Differs from 防御 in being more immediate and personal, and from 防护 in implying active resistance rather than passive shielding.
