Abstract
The chapter analyses the most significant aspects of the evolution of the discipline of administrative action and relations between public administration and citizens in Italy, over the last 50 years. The changes concern the conception of the public interest and administrative discretion, the implementation of the principle of legality, the centrality of the administrative procedure, the wider use of powers and acts of private law, the rules designed to allow greater efficiency in the exercise of various types of control of private activities, the “new” rights (participation in the procedure, transparency of public administration, the right of access), and the civil liability for unfair damages. The author points out that there are still shortcomings and contradictions in Italian administrative law, but that it is deeply changed and improved, because it is more respectful of the values of the Italian Constitution and of European Union law.
