Good governance is one of the concepts developed in the case-law of European Court of Human Rights in order to broaden the scope of protection granted by the Convention and its protocols. As European Union law explicitly mentions right to good administration and national systems regulate similar requirements, European Court of Human Rights is more or less reluctant on the subject. In order to guarantee promptness, diligence, legality and effectiveness of the administration, the Court examines regularity, coherence and proportionality of administrative acts which constitute interference with the rights guaranteed by the Convention and its protocols, including the right to property or right to a fair trial. In this respect, the Court has found a way to treat judicial guaranties within the scope of administrative action and it has clearly established a general idea of good governance. Nevertheless, its scope and content have yet to be explicitly determined. This study aims to systematize Court’s controversial approach on the concept of good governance as far as possible.
