Abstract: In 2009, as they were emphazing on the resilience of the Algerian economy facing the global crisis, the authorities introduced severe restrictions on both import, foreign investment and consumer credit. Do these measures simply mean an adaptation to the international context of crisis or do they reflect deeper policy changes in a context of deindustrialization, perverse effects of oil and gas profits, and import drift? Should we see there a challenge to economic openness, a restoration of control levers or a willingness to respond to growing social tensions? More fundamentally, these measures appear particularly symptomatic of the impasse in the process of economic reform, which has its roots in the contradictions of the role of the State in the national economy since the late 1980s.
