Integrity of the Public Sector and Controls: a New Challenge for Global Administrative Law?

There are many rules and measures governing the integrity of public administrations. They are established by global regimes, and implemented by both national systems and the global regimes themselves. Global regimes set standards and oversee the compliance of national systems with global integrity rules. At the same time, they are themselves subject to administrative constraints and diversified integrity controls. Global regimes therefore play a dual role, as both controllers and controlled. This raises some questions, including how the application of integrity rules and measures can be controlled, the differences between integrity controls related to national systems and those pertaining to global regimes, and how integrity controls can contribute to the development of global administrative law. All these come together in a central question of why these controls represent a new challenge in global administrative law.
