Processes for assigning first names in the context of socio-cultural changes in Batna

Abstract

In This article we present the results of a research that focuses on the processes of attribution of first names in the context of social and cultural changes in Batna. To do this, we will first place ourselves at the heart of its socio-cultural changes; the objective is to show through concrete examples that the re-Islamization is the most remarkable aspect of the current evolution of Algerian society. These changes are not without consequences on the act of first name, which we questioned through a field survey by questionnaire within those involved in this act.
