Abstract

The development and growth in Algeria did not take a regular path, as some economic and political measures affected making laws about the investments, mainly the foreign. In this context, this paper focuses on the three phases of the foreign
investment in Algeria, starting from the socialist era, passing by the transitional period, and ending with the liberal phase. Findings show that Algeria witnessed big intellectual and legal changes in the foreign investment to attract money and
technology. Besides, it is necessary to maintain the investment environment, and to protect and develop the estate because it is a non-renewable rare resource.
