Abstract

The national governance modernization is an important part of Chinese-style modernization. It is of great importance to advance the modernization process by assessing the modernization level of national governance. In this paper, we propose a new method for assessing the national governance modernization using the ordered weighted geometric composition operator (OWGC). First, defining the OWGC by introducing the average operator. The application of the OWGC in measuring the national governance modernization is then demonstrated and the general measurement procedure is presented. Finally, empirical data are used to analyze the degree and regional differences in national governance modernization. The empirical results obtained by using the OWGC not only show uneven development between different provinces, but also reflect the development strengths and weaknesses of each region, which will help provide guidelines for improving the level of modernization and promoting coordinated regional development delivery.
