Administration of Public Risk Rumors from the Perspective of Substantive Rule of Law
During the COVID-19,many related rumors emerged.This kind of public risk rumors reflects the conflict be-tween citizens'freedom of speech and public order,but from the perspective of reverse realism and citizen supervision,there is some kind of concurrence between citizens'freedom of speech and public interest.Starting from a rights-based thinking,the substantive rule of law requires that the law enforcement actions of administrative organs are both legal and reasonable,and the government credibility required by the"foresight theory",also needs public authorities to adopt a softer approach to rumor management.In the process of managing public risk rumors,the government should be more inclined to protect citizen rights and provide more restrictive explanations for public order.The government can manage public risk ru-mors through two ways:one is to prudently identify and punish public risk rumor behavior through post event governance;the other is to increase the government information disclosure based on the people's sovereignty and its derived citizen's right to know,for dealing with public risk rumors.
