Natural Resource Abundance and Economic Growth [PDF]

, 1995
One of the surprising features of modern economic growth is that economies with abundant natural resources have tended to grow less rapidly than natural-resource-scarce economies. In this paper we show that economies with a high ratio of natural resource exports to GDP in 1971 (the base year) tended have low growth rates during the subsequent period ...
