CONSIDERATIONS ON THE TYPOLOGY OF AUTONOMOUS ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITIES IN THE ROMANIAN LAW SYSTEM
Abstract
Rule of law has been designed as a construction mainly aiming at observing the rights and freedoms of individuals, by protecting them and ensuring general balance where everyone obeys state law and no one is above the law. The amount of legislation, the political power interested in satisfying its own interests, which are frequently in opposition with the general interests of individuals, the shaping of the various groups of interests that try to impose their own will, are harmful factor that endanger the very existence of the rule of law. A range of strategic fields of social life have required increased attention and outstanding protection through the rule of law. Thus, objective means had to be found in order to guarantee the protection of these sensitive fields, by discarding the influence of political power and the pressure of groups of interests. This background witnessed the development of autonomous administrative authorities, public institutions included in the administrative structure of the rule of law, but independent in their activity, as they are subordinated to none of the three powers in the rule of law. This paper aims at providing a descriptive and exploratory analysis of the typology of autonomous administrative authorities created in the Romanian law system and the organization of their activity.
