摘　　要：公共服务职责划分是公共部门制度设计的重要内容,也是决定公共服务供给能否高效回应社会需求与偏好的关键。在我国,公共服务职责划分存在"职责同构"与"上下错位"等问题,这既影响了政府间关系的正常运行,也降低了公共服务供给的效率。在当代,"分权"模式与"代理"模式是公共服务职责划分的两种主要思路,分别具有不同的效率优势,但也各自存在明显的缺陷。文章提出了公共服务职责划分的"多层治理"模式,该模式在建立分层负责体制、明确不同层级政府的服务责任和管理权力的基础上,拓展横向的公共服务职责配置形式,构建动态、弹性的政府间关系来回应当代公共服务流动性、变动性和跨区域性日益加强的发展趋势,为我国优化公共服务职责划分提供参考。The allocation of public service functions is an important institutional project in the public sector, and the key to the efficient provision of public services to satisfy social demand. In China, there are problems such as responsibility duplication and functional dislocation in vertical intergovernmental relations, leading to disorder and inefficiency of public services provision. Decentralization and Principal - Agent are the main models of the allocation of public service functions at present. Each model has both advantages in efficiency and prominent defects. This paper suggests that the Multi -level Governance model could be an alternative in Chinese public services provision. This model is based on the system of multi - level responsibilities, clarifying the responsibil- ities and power of each level of government, and expanding the forms of public services provision. It emphasizes building dynamic flexible intergovernmental relations to respond to the contemporary challenges of increasing fluidity, variability and externality of public services.
