The Council of Europe (CoE) has a long-standing record of promoting standards of good administration in the European legal space. Today, these standards encapsulate the entire range of general organisational, procedural and substantive legal institutions meant to ensure a democratically legitimised, open and transparent administration respecting the rule of law. Therefore, these standards are about the ‘limiting function’ of administrative law, that is, its function to protect individuals from arbitrary power, to legitimise administrative action and to combat corruption and nepotism and other ‘diseases’ with which even a democratic polity willing to be governed by the rule of law may be infected. These CoE standards can be described as ‘pan-European principles of good administration.
The article presents a project on "Pan-European General Principles of Good Administration" funded by the German Research Foundation and its first results. This project is about the work of the Council of Europe in the realm of administrative law and its impact on the administrative law of its Member States.

This book is about the existence and effectiveness of written and unwritten standards of good administration developed within the framework of the Council of Europe (CoE).

This book argues that these standards, called here the ‘pan-European general principles of good administration’
