Abstract: The active governance of government and participation of the public are two aspects of anti-corruption, both of which are indispensable. However, when the public participates in fighting against currently,there are still some disadvantages of fragmentation in the way of participation, and this deficiency is closely related to the public's high tolerance of corruption, relatively weak legal protection, and lower ability of personal participation. Those do not make for the construction of the anti-corruption system in China, and affects the anti-corruption going deeply and broadly in some extent. In order to realize the practical needs, it is necessary for setting up an institutional and systematical anti-corruption regime, creating an idea of zero tolerance, establishing special non-governmental anti-corruption organizations, raising the awareness of anti-corruption and ability of fighting against corruption. All the above are feasible measures to better encourage the public to participate in the field of anti-corruption. Meanwhile, the concept that derogates officials' privacy rights should be adhered which is the better way to reconcile the conflict between the public who participates in anti-corruption and “protection of officials' privacy rights”, and it is also a fundamental way to eliminate the fragmentation of the public participating in anti-corruption.

Key words: anti-corruption, public participation, zero tolerance, fragmentation
