Abstract:As a part of governance system in China, the central-government uses double model of governance including rule of law and rule by index, to consolidate the authority and legitimacy of the government.Index-mechanism focuses on the result but ignores the standard procedures.In contrast, law-mechanism focuses on the standard procedures but lacks incentive being properly used.The double model of governance is an incentive compatibility constraint, for the rule of law can establish the bottom line of the government behavior, and the rule by index can stimulate the officials by performance measurement and political tournaments.Now, the central-government uses performance measurement to promote administration legally.However, the index-mechanism may undermine the authority of the rule of law.We need to coordinate the index-mechanism and the law- mechanism.
