The Financial Deficit of Local Communities and Its Impact on Local Development in Algeria

Öz

Local communities in Algeria are assigned broad responsibilities in economic, social, and cultural development, yet the growth of their self-generated revenues has not kept pace with these responsibilities. This study examines the causes of the financial deficit experienced by municipalities and provinces and its impact on local development. Adopting a descriptive-analytical approach combined with a legal analysis of Municipal Law No. 11-10, Provincial Law No. 12-07, and the related regulatory texts, the study shows that the deficit stems from rising operating expenditure, the dependence of the tax system on the state, tax evasion, and the poor exploitation of local properties. These shortfalls compel local communities to rely on external resources, chiefly state grants and the subsidies of the Joint Fund for Local Communities. Because such funding is largely earmarked and tied to central plans, it places municipalities and provinces under central guardianship and narrows their autonomy in setting development priorities. The study argues that financial autonomy can be strengthened by transferring a share of national tax revenue to local budgets, involving local representatives in tax decisions, and revaluing local properties.
