Algeria
-------
Hopes ran high eighteen months ago, immediately following the election
of reform-minded President Abdelaziz Bouteflika, that over seven years
of virtual civil war in Algeria had come to an end. Today, in a fresh
assessment of the situation in Algeria, the International Crisis Group
concludes that the country's crisis is far from over - and the issues
that lie at its heart have not been addressed.
ICG's report highlights the core problems that need to be tackled by the
Algerian government, with the involvement of the International
community, if Algeria is to avert a re-ignition of conflict on the
massive scale of the period 1992 to 1998. It sets out a number of policy
recommendations - among them measures to stimulate dialogue between the
government and the Islamists, redefine the role of the Algerian army in
politics, and speed and support a process of economic reform.
