Following the sharp rise in oil prices in late 1973 and early 1974, most oil exporting countries adopted highly expansionary fiscal and monetary policies aimed at rapid development of their economies. In Nigeria the role of the public sector since then has been significantly increased as most of the oil revenue accrues directly to the Federal government rather than to individuals. Given the host of economic problems faced by the country in the 1970s the debate over the role of the public sector in a mixed capitalist economy in the process of economic growth gains more relevance. / The essence of this study is to analyze the consequence of alternative patterns of government policy on economic growth in Nigeria. The study provides a general framework that is useful in studying the effects of alternative government policies on the domestic economy and also in analyzing alternative patterns of allocating the sudden increase in domestic resources. Using policy simulation experiments, an alternative policy package is suggested and the relative effectiveness of various policy instruments used by the government are examined.

By examining the influence of tax and economic changes on the financing decisions of a sample of companies from Australia, Germany, Indonesia, Malaysia and South Africa from 1996 to 2005, this thesis provides new evidence which extends beyond the finance and economics literature that is dominated by studies of the US. / PhD Doctorate

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) / It took 400 years to recognise and then analyse a class of social phenomena – the unintended results of historical development and individual action. This class includes language, law, the economic order, prices, money, morals, customs, skills, the division of labour, etc. They are complex formations, combining complex rules and particular historical circumstances; they manifest in people’s action and therefore the historical record. Analysts of such complex historical phenomena includes Coke, Hale, Mandeville, Hume, Smith, Burke, Sir William Jones, Wilhelm von Humboldt, Ferguson and Dugald Stewart. Menger, Mises and Hayek built on, systematised and extended what had been built up earlier. The capital structure is now added to this class; and the latter’s general features are set out using language, law, the catallaxy and the capital structure. The investment structure in early modern England is analysed and described as a case study.
