In China, development of human rights is inherently included in good governance, which is reflected in the following aspects: Firstly, people participate widely in social and public-interest affairs management through exercising their democratic rights endowed by the constitution. Secondly, citizens’ fundamental human rights and other civil rights are protected by law. Thirdly, people’s rights to know and to express are expanding in China. Fourthly, the Chinese government actively responds to people’s requirements, accepting their supervisions and improving their living standard. To promote the modernization of state’s governance, China must stick to the principles of human rights protection which are supposed to guarantee people’s rights to participate in, to know and to supervise the process of decision-making, as well as to reserve the fundamental rights for the disadvantaged.
