ABSTRACT

With the development of society, the modern government governance model which has achieved certain reform results still cannot meet the needs of social progress, and the Chinese-style modernization also puts forward a higher standard for government governance, under which the construction of "good government" has become an important content that needs to be realized at present. Locke's concept of government is still an important reference value for the construction of modern government, and the analysis of Locke's governmental thought can help to further clarify what is a "good government". At present, there are challenges in China's governmental governance, such as lack of clarity in the division of functions, homogenization of governmental governing bodies and governance methods, fragmentation of governmental powers, and the need to improve the construction of a democratic government. A modernized Chinese “good government” should be democratic, rule of law and transparent, accountable and efficient.
