Résumé

Abstract This study investigates the strategic role of the mediator in international negotiation, with particular focus on Algeria's diplomatic practice. Employing a qualitative case study methodology, it analyzes Algeria's mediation efforts in the Iran hostage crisis (1979–1981) and the Malian peace process (2014–2015). Drawing upon realism and constructivism as theoretical frameworks, the findings indicate that effective mediation depends critically upon neutrality, credibility, cultural proximity, and strategic communication. The study demonstrates how middle powers can influence conflict resolution outcomes through principled and skillful diplomacy.
