The international law seeks to unify the values of human rights in accordance with the liberal western understanding within the framework of international treaties, especially civil and political rights, the most important of which is the right to life against which the death penalty is considered aggression. Since Algeria is a state party to these treaties, it is concerned with taking all measures to activate them at the national legislation, such as updating its laws in accordance with its international obligations and subjecting the files of those rights to international monitoring bodies. On the other hand, it deals cautiously with this issue, given the sensitivity of the crime, especially in light of the constitutional and legal principles that govern Algerian society, the most important of which is Islam as the state religion. This research is devoted to studying Algeria's position on the death penalty in light of these contradictory obligations.
