Legal Frameworks And Agricultural Land Transformations In Algeria

Authors : Zibar Chadli .

Abstract

The study of real estate, in general, and agricultural real estate, is among the most significant modern legal studies jurisprudence neglected in previous eras. However, contemporary jurisprudence has shifted towards addressing real estate issues and analyzing their texts significantly as agricultural real estate's economic and social value has increased, and its problems have become more complex. The Algerian legislature has successfully addressed the legal approach to developing agricultural real estate through various legislations since independence. These legislations aimed to establish a legal framework for managing and utilizing agricultural lands owned by private individuals or the state. However, these legislations appeared contradictory due to their issuance in different political and economic contexts. The legal approach to the evolution of agricultural real estate differs from the socialist orientation and the period of self-management of agricultural real estate, passing through the provisions of the Agricultural Revolution Law through Order 71-73, to the beginning of the free-market economic orientation and the impact of the 1989 Constitution in practical terms, with the issuance of the Real Estate Directive Law 90/25. The evolution of legal, political, and economic thought has led to the development of the legal approach to agricultural real estate, with each phase having its distinct characteristics. The study has expanded to encompass social and economic dimensions with a political context
