Abstract: As a socio-pathological phenomenon with a complex generative mechanism,corruption arises from the nested interaction of multiple dimensions: institutional deficiencies in the power operation system,resource misallocation during the economic transition period,the concept of power alienation embedded in traditional culture,and individual behavioral decision-making.In response to this multifaceted challenge,China has established a distinctive governance framework centered on legal systems and supervisory mechanisms.However,with the high-quality development of society and the increasing public awareness of rights,it has become imperative to construct a four-dimensional comprehensive governance system encompassing rule of law,government administration,social justice,and public participation.In terms of the rule of law,the focus should shift from fragmented legislation to systematic legal integration,harmonizing anti-corruption laws with intra-Party regulations,and enhancing both the independence of law enforcement and the application of technological tools.Regarding government management,governance must move from closed operations toward transparency,reconstructing the logic of power operation through mechanisms of governmental openness and compensating for the blind spots of traditional supervision through societal oversight.In the dimension of social justice,the priority should shift from efficiency to fairness and equity,addressing the root causes of corruption by improving social welfare and reforming income distribution.Lastly,in terms of public participation,there is a need to transition from passive responses to active checks and balances,fostering a culture of integrity through civic education,ensuring accessible channels for public supervision,and building a multi-level oversight network.Through institutional integration and coordinated action among various stakeholders,this multidimensional approach aims to enhance the "systemic resilience" of the anti-corruption governance structure,ultimately achieving a paradigm shift from "symptomatic punishment" to "comprehensive,root-cause-oriented governance".
