Abstract
Clarifying the essence of the good public administration in the USA, United Kingdom, European countries, and Ukraine has led to the need for special studies of the Good Faith and Іntegrity principles. The purpose of this paper is to develop the framework for future study of the doctrine of good administration, within the European cultural and legal tradition. This study represents a “triune” system of methodology: 1) general (meta-theoretical) methods – theory “Law as Іntegrity” of Ronald M. Dworkin); 2) special (typical for the work) method – a legal operationalization; 3) applied methods – logical-linguistic and sociological methods of content analysis. The results of preliminary review of the theoretical works were significantly modified on a basis of the collection and study of empirical material of activities in the sphere of public administration. A significant body of legal texts were examined by using the content-analysis method which has been successfully applied in the framework of the empirical research. The conclusions contain a basic hypothesis for future research. The basic concept of the claimed research, which has been developed, in such a way, is reduced to object, subject and aim of the further study of the issues raised in the field of good public administration.
