President of the republic in the Algerian constitutional amendment 2016

Abstract EN

Among the most important topics covered by the constitutions of most countries is the organization of their three executive, legislative and judicial powers.

The importance of these powers is demonstrated by the place assigned to them by the constitution, both in terms of their place in the constitutional document and in terms of membership conditions in them, as well as the functions they exercise.

This study comes to show the importance of one of these powers, which is the executive power, by clarifying the place of the President of the Republic in the last 2016 Constitutional Amendment, and this is by identifying the most important constitutional revisions included in relation with the head of the Executive power both in terms of the conditions to be eligible for the presidency, the presidential vacancy, as well as the functions assigned to him in ordinary and extraordinary circumstances.
