Public Governance theory, which first emerged in western countries in early 1990s, now has already become a widely influential ethos. With the gradual improvement of the market economy, the accelerated transformation of government functions, and the growing aspiration of people to participate in public affairs, local governments began to bring some multiple subjects, such as social organizations, into local governance system by authorization and decentralization, thus to carry out public authorities and to provide public products or services together.Chamber of Commerce is one of the most representative social organizations. Considering as one of the most significant subjects of local governance, chamber of commerce can compensate for deficiencies of market and government in the public domain. And it also gives a sense of structural changes of the government, the market and the society, which was related to the adjustments of multiple relationships, for instance, governmental powers, market boundaries and social autonomy.Regarding as one of China’s most developed regions in the matter of market economy, Zhejiang Province is really active in local government innovation. And its social organizations is also sufficiently developed, among of which the development of chamber of commerce in Zhejiang catches everyone’s eyes. This thesis mainly focuses on the analysis of principal functions of the particular way of governance, the comparative advantages, and the limitations, and discusses the countermeasures of chamber of commerce to take part in the local governance and the development tendency by means of systematic investigations of the participation of chambers of commerce in Zhejiang to local government.First, we start from the basic concepts of local governance and non-government chambers of commerce, to analyze the position of non-government chambers of commerce in local governance, put forward three major functions of advocacy, service and coordination, and four restricting factors.Secondly, combining with various cases, we summarize the evolving function and four main features of Zhejiang chambers of commerce in local governance. That is, upstanding relationship between government and chambers of commerce, developed social network system, efficient information transmission channels and various quasi-public products.Once again, through the structure and function of the theory, we analyze the reasons of Chamber of Commerce’s failure.Finally, from the perspective of the government and the chamber of Commerce, this thesis also tries to put forward some corresponding countermeasures.
