The Legal Nature of a Constracting Agreement in Algerian Civil Law

Abstract

This article deals with one of the forms of organized or codified business contracts that emerged in the financial and business environment, namely the contracting agreement, which has a prominent place in the field of developing economic relations in the completion of buildings and architectural facilities, stimulating economic investments by obtaining various works and services, as it aims to manage and develop strategic projects and achieve economic development. It was organized under the rules of the Algerian Civil Code under the title of contracts related to work.

This study concluded that this contract has a special legal nature, both in terms of the components and foundations on which it is based and in terms of its distinctive features. Despite being regulated or codified, its rules remain insufficient and do not fulfill its intended purpose, especially when it comes to international contracting agreements, as it remains subject to different and varied legal systems.
