Abstract

This study aims to explore the electronic monitoring system as a favored tool in the new criminal strategy adopted by the recent reforms in Algeria's justice sector. These reforms advocate for the restructuring of penalties by creating new alternatives to the execution of short-term custodial sentences. The study examines the concept, progressing to an analysis of its incorporation into law no. 18_01, through an exploration of its legal framework.
