The process of fixing an administrative plan clearly presents the circulatory character:the choice of value and adjusting of interests.This is a problem not only in administration but also in administrative law,not only in legislation but also in politics.In modern countries,the mixed character of the planning process will be strengthened,and the study of administrative planning in administrative law cannot be limited in the sphere of administration or administrative law,but need to hold the multidimensional view.It cannot be limited in the reasonableness in economy,technology and the aptness in legal regulations,but need to look into the planning designed for the social conformity,to construct the making and deciding processes,and research the political reasonableness in the plan-fixing process.It is an important subject of functional law study that on the bases of affirming the dominating status of government in the administrative planning,how we can carry out the theories of science,democracy and the rule of law,and construct a plan-fixing mechanism that all the interests can be fully delivered and concretely realized.
