<![CDATA[Public transparency and legal accountability are essential components of democratic governance because they promote openness, strengthen public oversight, and ensure responsible exercise of governmental authority. This study examines the role of transparency and accountability in democratic governance in Indonesia through a normative juridical method and doctrinal analysis of Law Number 14 of 2008 on Public Information Disclosure and Law Number 30 of 2014 on Government Administration. Using a normative juridical approach, relevant legal provisions, legal principles, and related legal literature published between 2018 and 2024 were systematically reviewed and analyzed through thematic synthesis. The findings indicate that transparency enhances citizen participation and access to information, while accountability strengthens institutional responsibility and legal certainty. Together, these principles contribute to public trust, governance effectiveness, and democratic legitimacy. The study concludes that effective implementation of transparency and accountability frameworks is essential for strengthening democratic governance and improving public sector performance in Indonesia.]]>
