Abstract: The post-1978 public sector reform in China has entered a new stage of building a modern state governance system as its grand reform strategy. This essay reviews China’s public sector reforms in the 2010s and further reform challenges and trends. It argues that a public administration with Chinese characteristics has been gradually and firmly established, which fundamentally deviates from the western models. To introduce coordinated and deepened reforms, political leadership has been and will be more than ever employed. The Chinese practices offer new opportunities for comparative studies to build theories of global relevance.
