Results: in view of the provisions of the current legislation and existing doctrinal concepts, they have expressed their views on the definitions of the administrative process, administrative justice and administrative justice, and proved the thesis of their close organic relationship. Discussion: the positioning of their own points of view on the essence of these concepts and their relationship, which prompts the need for further scientific understanding of these legal phenomena.

The European integration course of Ukraine, deepening the democratization of our society, asserting the priority of human rights and freedoms in relations with the subjects of state-power powers require the further development of the forms of judicial protection of the rights, freedoms and interests of individuals and legal entities, comprehensive growth of law enforcement and law enforcement administrative procedural form. The administrative process provides a dynamic form of life for one of the largest arrays of legal norms, which are substantive norms of administrative law and which serve as a priority legal instrument for the implementation of tasks and functions of the executive power. Along with it, administrative justice and administrative justice play an essential role today in the proper protection of the constitutional rights, freedoms and interests of citizens and other participants in legal relations from possible unlawful acts or omissions of public authorities. At the same time, both legal theory and jurisprudence in this field, to a certain extent, require appropriate scientific interpretation and further doctrinal understanding of these concepts with a view to their further development and implementation in the legislative process. Therefore, the study of these issues always remains relevant.

Based on the analysis, the authors conclude that the concept of administrative justice, administrative justice and the administrative process are organically and inextricably interconnected, complementary and have a similar functional purpose. After all, it is the duty of the rule of law to fully guarantee the guarantees of the subjective rights and interests of citizens in their relations with the subjects of public authority, which necessitates the effective functioning of administrative justice in Ukraine, which would judicially protect the rights of citizens and ensure legality in the activities of public administration bodies.
