السلطة الوطنية المستقلة للانتخابات في ظل دستور 2020

Abstract EN

The Constitution of 2020 came to enshrine the new directions of the Algerian state, especially after the popular demands embodied by the blessed February 22 movement and the successive marches that lasted for a year and whose most important goals were to build a democratic state away from previous practices based on the rule of law, the exchange of power and the fight against corruption.

The first of these changes came after the election of a new President of the Republic, whose electoral program was among the priorities of his electoral program, the embodiment of this new state, the creation of political and administrative life, the fight against corruption, the promotion of rights and freedoms, with the consequent establishment of the foundations of political democracy.

Where the Constitution of 2020 came to provide for the first time - in the Algerian constitutions since independence in Chapter Four under the title of Oversight Institutions and in Chapter Three - the establishment of the Independent National Authority for Elections, which included 04 articles from Article 200 to Article 203 of the 2020 Constitution.

The Commission is tasked with preparing, organizing and conducting elections and referendum operations.

In this regard, Decree 01/21 of March 10, 2021 was issued containing the organic law related to the electoral system to actually enshrine guarantees of independence for this independent authority.
