تراجع الحماية الدستورية للحق في البيئة في الجزائر بموجب التعديل الدستوري لسنة 2020

الملخص EN

The Algerian legislator introduced the constitutional right to environment by virtue of article 68 of the 2016 constitutional amendment.

however, the above-mentioned text was soon amended by article 64 of the 2020 constitutional amendment, which includes certain terms that imply that the legislator waived the constitutional protection which had already been approved previously ..

the study has revealed that the fact that article 64 links the citizen’s right to a sane environment with durable development, after it had been approved as a general and universal right, actually limits the citizen’s right to environment to a certain frame that is difficult to define since the concept of durable development is, itself, difficult to define; this would allow the state to control this right following its interests.
