mods: The suspended disaster governing by crisis in Bouteflika's Algeria Governing by crisis in Bouteflika's Algeria Serres, Thomas creator author. text bibliography nyu 2023 monographic eng print xxii, 406 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. "This book examines the Algerian political system during the four mandates of Abdelaziz Bouteflika (1999-2019), whose time in office began with promises of restoring Algeria to regional promise after a civil war but descended into corruption, unconstitutionality, and authoritarianism. Based on extensive fieldwork, it shows how the Algerian ruling coalition developed a mode of government based on the management of a longstanding crisis-defined by continuous socioeconomic unrest, "residual" terrorism, and the widespread rejection of political authorities-and the potential collapse of the country. Paradoxically, this mode of government also led to a genuinely revolutionary situation, which materialized in the 2019 movement (Hirak) and resulted in Bouteflika's resignation. Featuring research done before and after these events, this book chronicles the origins and aftermath of an uprising that changed the face of Algerian politics"-- Preface : fifteen years later -- A never-ending crisis? -- Struggles at the heart of the state -- Cronies and labyrinths -- Fragments of order -- The regulation of freedoms -- The crisis as a lived experience -- In search of lost meaning.
