OPENNESS AND TRANSPARENCY IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to highlight a series of elements referring to transparency as an ethical operational value in the practice of administrative action. We will develop a theoretical analysis on transparency as an ethical value, which becomes a principle of good administrative practice. Transparency promotes a series of constitutive values such as equality of chances and opportunities and respect for the dignity and autonomy of the individual in the process of administrative decision. The starting point of this article is the normativity specific to the Romanian public sphere, but the ethical values and the principles derived have a universal applicability in the systems of administrative ethics based on responsibility towards non-presence.
