This has made the development of new theories to legitimize administrative practices inevitable. The formation of the theory of "open administration" and the "principle of openness" is one of the most important theoretical efforts made by thinkers in the field of governance to justify the legitimacy of administrative actions in its new dimensions. This research, which is done by descriptive-analytical method and using library resources, seeks to introduce the existing literature on this principle. The findings of this study show that the principle of openness consists of two more detailed components including "transparency" and "participation". The realization of each of these two components requires conditions and preconditions that success in fulfilling them, leads to more acceptance of government regulations, improving the quality of regulations, increasing public satisfaction, strengthening public participation, prevention of corruption and in general The executive branch will function better. }, URL = {http://qjal.smtc.ac.ir/article-1-932-en.html}, eprint = {http://qjal.smtc.ac.ir/article-1-932-en.pdf}, journal = {Administrative Law}, doi = {10.52547/qjal.9.29.9}, year = {2022} }
