ABSTRACT

This research is focused on the impact of Value Added Tax on Economic Growth in Nigeria. It covers the period between 1999 and 2019. Secondary data sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria Statistical Bulletin as well as Nigeria Bureau of Statistics were utilized. The ordinary least square estimating technique was adopted. The result revealed that Government expenditure, Investment and Value Added Tax were statistically significant to changes in Economic Growth in Nigeria. However, human capital development was not statistically significant to changes in Economic growth with in the period covered by the study. It was therefore recommended that even though Value Added Tax is marginally significant to changes in economic growth, government should not increase it to fund annual budget. Government is also advised to increase acquisition of skills of its labour force to boost human capital segment. Also government should increase capital expenditure which is the productive aspect of her annual expenditure instead of the usual lion share given to recurrent expenditure in annual budget. This is the only way economic growth can be sustainable in Nigeria

ABSTRACT

Resumen El objetivo de este artículo es reflexionar acerca de cuatro aspectos alternativos para la política criminal contra la delincuencia organizada transnacional, que se justifican críticamente en los resultados deficientes producidos por los enfoques tradicionales. En principio se examinan elementos provenientes de la teoría económica que explican cómo se levantan las estructuras de delincuencia organizada, siempre desde economías subterráneas. Luego, la revisión del uso imprudente de términos para denominar al objeto de estudio, muestra el impacto que esto tiene para la construcción de percepciones y significados que guían las respuestas al problema con poca objetividad y efectividad. El planteamiento estructuralista que se identifica en la sofisticada división de las actividades delictivas para complementarse entre ellas, propone relaciones que ayudan a entender el crecimiento acelerado y la rentabilidad económica incontenible de la delincuencia organizada. Y por último, se examina a la controvertida hipótesis de convergencia entre este problema y el terrorismo. Este manuscrito repasa de manera específica algunos trabajos recientes producidos por especialistas reconocidos, pero también toma referencias clásicas de las ciencias sociales para confrontarlas con la realidad, y crear nuevos argumentos de política pública para la contención del delito organizado.


Abstract The objective is to reflect upon four alternative aspects for the crime policy against the transnational organized crime that are justified critically on the deficient results produced by the traditional approaches. At the beginning, emerging elements from the economic theory are studied, which explain how the organized crime structures are always lifted from underground economies. Then, the reckless use review of terms to name the study object shows the impact that it has for building perceptions and meanings that lead answers to the problem with a slight objectivity and effectiveness. The structuralist approach identified in the sophisticated division of criminal activities for complementing each other, state relationships that help to understand the accelerating growth and the uncontrollable economic return of the organized crime. Finally, the controversial hypothesis of convergence between this problem and terrorism is studied. This document reviews in a specific way some current studies developed by renowned specialists, but also it takes classical references of the social sciences for comparing them with the reality, and to build new arguments of public policy for the containment of the organized crime.


Resumo O objetivo é refletir acerca de quatro aspectos alternativos para a política criminal contra a delinquência organizada transnacional, que se justificam criticamente nos resultados deficientes produzidos pelas abordagens tradicionais. Em principio, se examinam elementos provenientes da teoria econômica, que explicam como se alçam as estruturas de delinquência organizada, sempre desde economias subterrâneas. Depois, a revisão do uso imprudente de termos para denominar ao objetivo de estudo, monstra o impacto que isto tem para a construção de percepções e significados que guiam as respostas ao problema com pouca objetividade e efetividade. A proposta estruturalista, que se identifica na sofisticada divisão das atividades delitivas para se complementar entre elas, propõe relações que ajudam a entender o crescimento acelerado e a rentabilidade econômica incontida da delinquência organizada. E, por último, examina-se a controvertida hipótese de convergência entre esse problema e o terrorismo. Este documento revisa de maneira específica alguns estudos recentes produzidos por especialistas renomados, mas também usa referências clássicas das ciências sociais para confronta-las como a realidade, e criar novos argumentos de política pública para a contenção do delito organizado.
