Abstract:
The phenomenon of African refugees is the biggest challenge facing Africans. Africa is the
main source of refugees, owing to the economic and political deterioration experienced by
most African countries. As a result of natural disasters, civil wars and conflicts, that have led
to the displacement of millions of Africans to neighboring areas. This study proved the
failure of the international community to contain the phenomenon of refugees around the
world, especially the African refugees, who are constantly increasing the cost of wars,
conflicts, natural disasters and the weakness of international laws to protect them and the
countries in control of this phenomenon. This study is highlighting also the dire conditions
of African refugees in Algerian society. In light of Algeria's failure to implement laws to
protect these refugees.And their reluctance to deter abuses committed by some Algerian
citizens against these African refugees. Such as racism and sometimes rejection of their
presence and sometimes assault them, in the absence and silence of the Algerian government.
