Administrative transparency in Algeria : some applications

Abstract EN

For centuries, the so-called supreme administrative decisions have been secret.

A provision legitimised until then by the sovereignty of the executive power and its regalian right.

Today and since the societal evolution linked to globalisation, rules are imposed on the administration to attenuate its secrecy and fight against corruption and the democratic deficit that the former regime has known for so long.

In Algeria as well as in modern democratic states, it is a question of regulatory work to reduce or even virtually eliminate secrets in favour of administrative transparency.

This study explains the legal aspect of administrative transparency in Algerian legislation.

In this study, the question of the legal framework and the legal instruments will be dealt with, followed by that of administrative control.
