In 2020, the democracy index in Algeria was at 3.77 points. Thus, the country was classified as an "authoritarian regime", like most of the countries in the Middle East and North Africa. However, as for political culture and political participation, the country was falling within the “hybrid regimes”, scoring between four and six index points. On the other hand, the low democracy index was influenced by the functioning of government, which obtained only 2.5 points in that year.

The source specifies that: "the Democracy Index is based on five categories: electoral process and pluralism, the functioning of government, political participation, political culture, and civil liberties.".
"The index values are used to place countries within one of four types of regime:
1. Full democracies: scores greater than 8
2. Flawed democracies: scores greater than 6, and less than or equal to 8
3. Hybrid regimes: scores greater than 4, and less than or equal to 6
4. Authoritarian regimes: scores less than or equal to 4"
