    (M'hamed Bougara-Boumerdes Universty: Faculty of Economics, Commercial and Management Science, 2023) Boukezata, Salim
    This paper aims to analyze the reality and developments of the digital economy in Algeria, in light of the Arab digital economy index (from 2018 to 2022), and to compare its performance with the top eleven Arab countries. The study concluded that Algeria's performance according to this index was very weak, as it ranked last during the various years of the study.Furtermore, despite the improvement in Algeria’s performance in one of the key pillars of the index, which is digital infrastructure, this didn’t reflect positively on the performance of the other pillars such as digital government, innovation, knowledge and technology. The paper also detailed the various sub-indicators of these pillars showing the main weaknesses in the case of Algeria.

    (Université M'hamed Bougara de Boumerdès, 2024) Boukezata, Salim
    The main purpose of this article is to examine the effect of Information Communication Technology (ICT), market size and trade openness on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for the panel of 21 countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), over the period 1998-2021, using the panel Vector Error Correction Models (panel VECM). overall, we find a strong evidence supporting the view that ICT, market size and trade openness effects FDI in OIC members countries in the long-term. however, in the short-term ICT, market size and trade openness haven’t a significant effect on FDI inflows.
