Algeria: A Country in Crisis.

摘要

Algeria today is a country in crisis. The country is on the brink of social collapse as militant Islamic fundamentalists challenge the oppressive measures of the current regime. The tighter the constraints imposed by the Army, nominally in political control, the greater the violent reactions of the militant groups. The more the factions battle, the more the likelihood of achieving a peaceful resolution recedes. How did Algeria get to this state of affairs. Are there any solutions. The author explores these answers and concludes that Algeria's problems are staggering, but the government must begin to take positive steps to resolve them, rather than trying to return to the old status quo. In the meantime, Algeria will continue to be a threat to the stability of the region and a source of concern for interested nations.
