التقارب القانوني بين المواطنة و الحق في البيئة

Abstract EN

There have been many constitutional developments in the recent constitutional amendment in Algeria in 2016.

One of the most important is what is known as the concept of citizenship, which in a general sense means, in terms of the duties and rights of the individual and the state, and expresses true belonging to participate in the decision-making process in the state.

This is what the Algerian Constitutional Founder has expressed in conclusion from the text of Article 15/3 on participatory democracy, as well as Article 17 on the exercise of such participation at the local level.

On the other hand, the current constitutional provision was explicit about the right to a healthy environment for the citizen compared to the previous provisions before the last amendment.

The text of article 68 is very clear, both in terms of expressly stipulating the right of a citizen to a healthy environment, and in terms of the duty of the State to preserve the environment, Especially in terms of what the authority must centrally or locally to consult the associations active in that area.

This is ultimately a convergence in terms of the legal texts of the various practices by the individual or groups, between them and what the state seeks to maintain, which is the environmental aspect of the citizen.
