520 |a Relating to the relation between education and growth in sub-Saharan Africa countries, this thesis aims to examine the socio-economic trajectories of 33 Anglophone, Francophone and Maghrebian countries. The goal is to seek the socio-economic reasons for the socio-economic backlog of the countries of this sample in order to contribute to the debate on the growth promotion policies on the continent. In particular, it aims to show, on the one hand that education is not the only explanatory factor for the weak income trajectories sub-Saharan African countries (SSA), and on the other that, the econometric models as well as the variables of interests have an impact on the results obtained. It is attempts, finally, to question the direction of the strong causality which exists between education and the economic growth. In the present state of knowledge, theories of growth (neoclassical and endogenous), and recent attempts to take into account data from African countries, in particular through the analysis of the effects of threshold and the trap poverty, have all experienced significant difficulties in explaining the socio-economic sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Therefore, our thesis proposes an extension that aims to integrate the specific and individual time, while controlling the means of endogeneity and simultaneity of the data in this sub-region. From these analyses, three fundamental lessons emerge. Firstly, the impact of education is positive and significant for all countries of the sample. However, this impact varies on the basis of method and the dependent variable used - GNP and GDP. Secondly, it seems that education is not the main explanatory factor of African economic weakness. Repeated armed conflicts and civilians troubles, the lack of economic opportunities, the importance of socio-economic inequalities, and regional disparities as well as social polarizations are the main brakes on development of the sub-region. Lastly, education appears to be effect rather than the cause of economic growth in this African sample.
