Abstract: The publicness is the meta-characteristic of the modern government,which embraces the service,justice,accountability,democracy and openness.At present,those factors which rooted in the government self-interest,vague position of the government functions,efficiency-oriented reforms,the alienation of the public power and non-democratization in public governance,lead to a declining trend of the government publicness in the transformation.To avoid diminishing of the publicness,the basic paths are to establish the concept of people first,to carry forward the spirit of public administration,to strengthen the public service functions,to improve the system of public governance,and to expand public participation.
