title: [Some aspects of recent trends in mortality in Algeria (1965-1981)].
abstract: Using data from the official vital statistics register and from a three-round survey that was conducted in 1969-1970, the author calculates mortality estimates for Algeria for the years 1965-1981.  The findings show "a period of fluctuations between 1965 and 1975, [during which] mortality between the age of five and young adult age experienced a deterioration which could [have been] the result of an increase of deaths due to accidents.  Since 1976, mortality has decreased spectacularly, although all ages do not benefit from this decrease in the same way."  (summary in ENG, ITA)
