Kanji structure (3)

Right-hand radicals (tsukuri or -zukuri):


A good example:


(せい)meaning govern.  The radical on right, which doesn't have a reading on its own, means strike/coerce.  Combine it with correct  (ただし)on left, and you get enforce correctness.  


A rather radical right-wing idea...


More groans...
