(تتناول هذه الدراسة موضوع الهندسة التشريعية للإجراءات الجزائية الجزائرية بوصفها أحد المفاتيح المركزية لفهم التحولات العميقة التي عرفها النظام القانوني الجزائري في سياق التحديات الأمنية المتصاعدة، وتنامي المطالب الحقوقية، وضرورة الرفع من فعالية الأداء القضائي. وتنطلق الدراسة من فرضية مفادها أن الإصلاحات المتلاحقة التي مست قانون الإجراءات الجزائية في الجزائر لا يمكن قراءتها بمعزل عن منطق هندسة تشريعية شاملة تسعى إلى إعادة التوازن بين ثلاثة أبعاد متداخلة: متطلبات الأمن الوطني، ضمانات حقوق الإنسان، ونجاعة العدالة الجنائية. في ظل التحولات الإقليمية والدولية، وما رافقها من تصاعد ظواهر الإرهاب والجريمة المنظمة والجرائم السيبرانية، برزت الحاجة إلى تطوير الإطار الإجرائي الجزائي بما يسمح بتمكين السلطات القضائية والأمنية من أدوات قانونية أكثر مرونة وفعالية، دون الإخلال بالضمانات الدستورية للمحاكمة العادلة وحماية الحريات الفردية. وعليه، تسعى هذه الدراسة إلى تحليل الكيفية التي أعادت بها التشريعات الجزائرية هندسة منظومة الإجراءات الجزائية، من خلال إدراج آليات استثنائية للتحري والمتابعة، وتوسيع صلاحيات الضبطية القضائية تحت الرقابة القضائية، وتعزيز دور النيابة العامة في توجيه الدعوى العمومية، مقابل تدعيم حقوق الدفاع وتكريس قرينة البراءة وضمان حق الطعن والرقابة القضائية This study examines the legislative engineering of Algerian criminal procedure as a central framework for understanding the profound transformations that have shaped the Algerian justice system in response to evolving security challenges, growing human rights demands, and the imperative of enhancing judicial effectiveness. The study is grounded in the premise that the successive reforms of the Algerian Code of Criminal Procedure cannot be understood in isolation from a comprehensive legislative engineering approach aimed at rebalancing three interdependent dimensions: national security requirements, the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms, and the efficiency of criminal justice.In a context marked by regional instability, the persistence of terrorism, the expansion of organized crime networks, and the emergence of cybercrime, Algerian lawmakers have sought to modernize procedural criminal law in order to equip judicial and security authorities with more flexible and effective legal instruments. At the same time, these reforms have been framed within constitutional guarantees of due process, fair trial standards, and respect for individual liberties. This study therefore seeks to analyze how Algerian legislation has restructured criminal procedure through the introduction of specialized investigative techniques, the expansion of judicial police powers under judicial supervision, the strengthening of the role of the public prosecution in directing criminal proceedings, and the reinforcement of defense rights, the presumption of innocence, and judicial oversight mechanisms. Methodologically, the study adopts an analytical–critical approach, combining textual analysis of amendments to the Algerian Code of Criminal Procedure with a contextual reading that situates these reforms within their broader security, political, and institutional environment. It further employs a functional perspective to assess the impact of procedural reforms on the effectiveness of criminal justice, particularly in terms of accelerating case processing, improving the handling of complex and transnational crimes, and enhancing coordination between security services and judicial institutions. The study argues that the legislative engineering of Algerian criminal procedure reflects a shift from a traditional, formalistic procedural model toward a comprehensive and integrated model that seeks to reconcile legal security with societal security. This model aspires to ensure both the protection of the community against serious threats and the safeguarding of constitutional rights and international human rights commitments. However, the study also highlights that the effectiveness of this legislative engineering remains contingent upon its practical implementation, the proportional use of expanded procedural powers, and the robustness of judicial oversight in preventing abuse or arbitrariness. The findings underscore that judicial effectiveness should not be measured solely by deterrence and repression, but also by the ability of the criminal justice system to foster public trust, guarantee procedural fairness, and deliver timely and credible justice in accordance with the rule of law. In this regard, the study emphasizes the need for continuous evaluation of procedural reforms, capacity-building and rights-based training for judges and judicial police officers, and the adoption of a forward-looking legislative approach that remains responsive to emerging security risks while preserving fundamental rights.Ultimately, the study concludes that the success of Algeria’s legislative engineering in criminal procedure depends on its capacity to sustain a delicate and dynamic balance between security imperatives, human rights protection, and judicial efficiency, thereby contributing to the consolidation of the rule of law and the legitimacy of the criminal justice system in a changing security environment.
