“…This idea reveals a common pattern within other contexts such as in Latin American countries two decades ago, when supranational interventions led to a decrease in the satisfaction with specific democratic systems while, at the same time, the support for democracy increased (Lagos 2003).…”

“…In a way we let people be the judge of whether their political system is run well or not. We have chosen the much discussed and often criticized SWoD-variable as our operational dependent variable (Fuchs, Guidorossi and Svensson 1995, Lagos 2003, Linde and Ekman 2003, Esaiasson and Ottervik 2014. 1 The acronym stands for Satisfaction with the Working of Democracy.…”

“…Many studies focus on comparative democratization experiences by exploring the gap that develops between the norms of democracy and regime performance in practice (Lagos, 2005;Rose, 2001). For instance, Daltin (2004) and Norris (2004) investigated the underlying factors that contribute to the lack of political trust and increasing levels of skepticism in the "disaffected democracies" of the West and whether such trends are associated with an "erosion in political support" Similarly, Inglehart (2004) contends that value change and "cognitive mobilization" affect what people expect from democracy.…”

ABSTRACT:This paper aims at reviewing the theoretical and empirical literature related to the evolution of democracy in the Arab world with specific focus on Algerian democratic transition in the last two decades. The paper attempts to find answers to a number of questions related to the nature and directions of how Algeria has been ruled since independence and to show how democracy is interpreted and perceived by the rulers and people. In order to understand the democratic development and transition of Arab states including Algeria, light will be shed on the modern theory of democracy from multiple perspectives. In this case the paper is descriptive in nature. This approach is often pursued by researchers assessing political phenomena (Rose, 2001;Talbi and Spencer, 2000) . It has long been debated that the root causes of a "democratic deficit" in Arab societies are linked to cultural issues, lags in economic development and to colonial history and international factors that continue to play a significant role in shaping the political landscape in the region. However, this paper assumes that, taking Algerian case as an example the control of one-party rule or one-individual rule is taking priority over democratic choice. There is evidence that there is no real circulation of power, as it is the case in modern democratic systems. Continuing violence and bloody military coups that accompanied the evolution of democratic transition supports this conclusion. In Algeria, the president is the person who receives the blessing of the military and western support. This is evident in the exclusion of rivals for the presidency under false pretenses.Keywords: Democracy  Algeria  transition  Arab world  conflict.
