The state and the society are two different human organizations. However, due to various reasons people tend to mix up these two terms both in theory and in practice. The long time misunderstanding has led to an unbalanced relation between the state and the society, resulting in lack of self-independence in the society and insufficiency of authority in the state. The reform of government function in China aims to distinguish between personal interest and public right, and, therefore, determine both the proper mode of the function and areas in which the government are supposed to functions. This, the author maintains, will inevitably lead to further adjustment of the relation between the state and the society. Moreover, neither transformation of economic system or reform of political system can work well without the support of the legal system. And with the market as a media of this adjustment, a new relationship between the state and the society can be expected to take shape.
