National Charter
Adopted on June 27, 1976 after a broad historical debate in May of the same year, the National Charter provided the Revolution with a long-term strategy and devoted a period of intense efforts to building an independent economy and a progressive society, proclaiming socialism as an irreversible choice.
After ten years of practical application, an evaluation was necessary in order to highlight the achievements and draw lessons from experience in the field. In a spirit of continuity and innovation, the National Charter was submitted to the people for enrichment. For six months, the attention of the popular masses was focused on this project through debates throughout the national territory and at all levels.
The completed and enriched version was adopted by the extraordinary congress of the National Liberation Front Party which was held from December 24 to 26, 1985. On January 16, 1986, the Algerian people, in a consensual and responsible approach, went massively to the polls and approved by 10,508,863 votes for and 181,063 votes against the new National Charter submitted to the popular referendum.
This historic text defines the requirements linked to the legitimate aspirations of the masses and indicates the path to follow to build, under the enlightened leadership of the National Liberation Front Party, a society of well-being and promotion of man.
