الاقتصاد السياسي للانتقال الديمقراطي في الجزائر : حسابات الحقل و مآلات البيدر

الملخص EN

From an economic standpoint, this study aims to comprehend the reasons for the popular uprising outbreak, as well as the chances for democratic transition from a political economy angle.

It examines the influence of the rentier state economic growth regime on the political prospects of citizens, particularly young people, who are convinced that such a regime will not lead to their ultimate safety, but rather to their economic marginalization due to the system's poor performance.

It turns out that adopting a more comprehensive and long-term growth approach has become even more critical.

As time goes by, it became evident that reform comes at a hefty cost on all fronts.

Rather than being a tributary and assistance to the continuance of economic reforms, political reforms became an impediment and took on even greater importance than economic reform itself.

The Algerian situation, according to the study, is an example of the intractable model of democratic transition in all its manifestations, since the incumbent system was pleased with restricted constitutional arrangements, notably elections.

This has strengthened the rentier state in all its forms, including the political system's fragility and the succession of crises it has faced since independence till today.
