Summary/Abstract: Electronic government, or e-government, is becoming an essential tool in the management of public administration throughout the world. Both the World Bank and the United Nations insist that every state must make use of e-government to strengthen democracy and good governance. It is therefore interesting to study the evolution of its installation in the Algerian context, marked by a highly bureaucratic administration. To support this, we have used the UN's key indicators for evaluating the development of e-government, and official data, particularly those of an informational and statistical nature, collected from Algerian authorities and other international sites. Our conclusion is that the installation and evolution of e-government and, consequently, the provision of online services in Algeria suffer from various deficiencies, particularly political ones due to the instability of the executive power.
