Abstract

Performance legitimacy can hardly last after the end of socio-economic growth. This paper attempts to discuss the underlying reasons for the phenomenon, which cover the unsustainable nature of economic prosperity, relative deprivation caused by fake performance, and that socio-economic growth does not necessarily testify good governance of the domestic ruling party. In addition, rising troubles like legitimacy externalization and “growth dilemma” further enhances the difficulty for government to obtain and maintain legitimacy through performance. Thus, Government is suggested to find new sources of legitimacy by other sustainable factors such as persuasive ideology, democratic procedure, etc.
