The two characteristics，namely priority of law and elaboration，have become more and more apparent in the development of social management of Beijing in 2015. The work of management by law illustrated itself in fostering concept of law in public，refining free law service and strengthening legal supervision. The elevated elaboration of management showed in the focus on subtleness，humanitarian care，improved proceedings and innovation of techniques. The socialization work appeared in different level and fields. The main issues in the development are the absence of legislation in certain fields，the lack of independence of social organizations and the perfection of means and methods of management. To solve these issues，there are several suggestions. Legislative agenda should be made and the system of legal counselling should be promoted. Humanitarian care should be valued in public policy making and new concept and technique should be adopted. The independence should be nourished through legislation of Beneficence law and such and the responding ability to public need should be enhanced by perfecting the system of public appraisal of government performance.
