Abstract

In this article, we tried to determine the role of transport in the accumulation of Tunisian public capital. Theoretically, it is very rare to find works that examine the direct link between the public capital accumulation and transportation. In our work, we treated the issue through foreign direct investment. For econometric modeling, we studied the different relationships that may exist between transport, foreign direct investment and the public capital accumulation. The empirical study focuses on a period of 38 years (1975 - 2012). Applying the method of least squares, we found that the attractiveness of FDI, favored by efficient transport systems, participate effectively in the accumulation of the Tunisian public capital. The latter will have, subsequently a more advantageous participation in the economic growth of Tunisia in the long term.
