Abstract

The question of participatory democracy has been raised during the past years in both Algeria and Morocco as a direct reaction to the representative democracy crisis and people's political alienation. This leads the legislator to search for an alternative that could give a standing for the individual as a citizen concerned with public space, rather than relying on his private space and personal interests. Civil society organizations have become important actors in providing social services and more generally in implementing development programs. This makes us understand the strong evocation of these societies in the official discourse, to frame individuals and ensure their daily participation, by setting a set of regulatory laws that work in reestablishing both political trust and communication between the official and the citizen.
