description The law regulating non-Muslim worship, enacted in February 2006, was implemented in 2008, with unprecedented severity in many cases of neo-evangelical conversion.

The phenomenon of evangelization in Algeria raises other issues related to those of democratization (the debate that has occurred since the abrupt discontinuation of the electoral process of 1992) and authoritarian abuses of presidential power.
