What do Components of Administrative Reforms Tell Us About the Quality of Economic Development? Evidence from a North African Country

This study aimed to identify the elements of administrative and economic reform in light of the new Libya as a state of institutions. The idea of this study was extracted from previous analyses. Given what this north African country is hurting from the collapse of all its institutions and all kinds due to the widespread administrative economic corruption that appears in its administrative structures, we wanted to address, even if only in a simple way, the study of administrative corruption, its causes, and how to reform it, hoping that Libya in the future will become a state of institutions where law and justice prevail. The problem here centered on studying the components of reforming the administrative economy in light of the new Libya as a state of institutions, where the study population consists of individuals working in public organizations in the city of Benghazi. However, due to the lack of time and effort, this study was restrained to selecting a deliberate sample represented by individuals working in the education and health sector administrations in Benghazi, the two most important sectors in the country. According to information from the Personnel Affairs Office in each ministry, 200 questionnaires were spread to individuals working in the two sectors. Several goals have been achieved through numerous consequences, the most important of which are: 1. Seventy-one samples indicated that the main target of corruption is the absence of patriotism and religious morals, followed by weak public oversight at a rate of 66%. 2. Negligence and negligence at a rate of 67% and bribery at a rate of 62% are among the most vital forms of administrative economic corruption that the study sample agreed upon. 3. 73% of the sample indicated that one of the methods through which administrative economic corruption is disregarded is applying the limits of the law, followed by 64% activating the role of oversight and changing its current status.
