Abstract

The principles and standards of good governance have recently received increasing attention in countries of the world, including Palestine. This is due to its significant role in increasing efficiency and effectiveness, achieving transparency, addressing administrative problems, combating financial and administrative corruption, achieving development, and increasing confidence in entities that apply the principles and standards of governance. Using the inductive and analytical approaches, this study aims to explore the legal rooting of good governance and its principles and to study the extent to which these principles are applied in the State of Palestine. The study concludes that good governance requires the realization of democracy, the rule of law, and flexible separation of powers, in addition to the existence of an administration that applies transparency, accountability, justice, consensus, participation, efficiency, responsiveness, and strategic vision, whether this administration is governmental or the private sector, and it also requires an active role for civil society organizations. And that the rightly guided rule in Islam contained a set of principles and standards that no other system of government had ever lived up to. And that the Palestinian political division negatively affected the implementation of good governance in Palestine.
