Résumé

Le but de cette étude était d’étudier les relations d’équilibre à long terme entre les facteurs internationaux et la croissance économique, ainsi que d’évaluer l’impact à court terme des IED, du commerce et de la croissance économique sur le transfert de technologie de la scène internationale vers le Nigeria. Cette étude a été réalisée en utilisant des données de séries chronologiques de 1970 à 2010. La technique de co-intégration multivariée développée par Johansen et Juselius (1990) a permis d’étudier les relations d’équilibre à long terme entre les facteurs internationaux et la croissance économique. Les résultats de l’analyse ont affirmé l’existence de vecteurs de co-intégration dans les systèmes de ce pays pendant la période de l’étude (Lee et Tan 2006). L’impact à court terme des IED, du commerce et de la croissance économique sur le transfert international de technologie vers le Nigeria a également été testé par l’intermédiaire d’essais de causalité de Granger, basée sur le Model de Correction des Vecteurs d’Erreur. Les résultats du test ont révélé un effet de causalité à court terme soit en cours d’exécution unidirectionnelle ou bidirectionnelle entre les variables pour le pays. Les implications politiques sont mises en évidence à la fin de ce rapport.
