Administrative Law and Fundamental Social Rights

Abstract

The aim of this work is to show that the administrative law of a social and democratic state based on the rule of law is the right that the government has to freedom with solidarity. The method used is one specific to legal research, in this case, by means of argumentation and by showing the importance that the constitutional principles have on administrative law. The study opens with an introduction, in which the matter is presented, followed by an analysis of constitutional law and by a comment on the incidence of the social state clause on Public Administration and administrative law that leads to the main conclusion: the general interest in a social and democratic state based on the rule of law is inextricably connected to the promotion of people’s fundamental, individual and social rights. In other words, the dignity of the human being is the center and at the root of public law, therefore, all its institutions and categories should be defined and built from this perspective.
