Abstract:
The impact of the different policies and programs applied on the space can be translated into a number of levels, such as the general aspect and the organization. The successive policies applied on the Algerian rural environment have left an imprint. The effects of the current phase the space is facing since approximately two decades have been clearly highlighted.
Especially as concerns the mountainous regions which have long been far from the different interventions (like programs and developments). In spite of its immense need; it was until the 2000’s, that these were integrated in a straightforward manner. Nevertheless, however important are the interventions and their impact on the space; there still exist other factors such as the location and the history of foundation, which play an important role in the dynamic of the space, and consequently its typology.
