Bananas, oil, and development: Examining the resource curse and its transmission channels by resource type [Dataset]

This paper examines the resource curse and its transmission channels by resource type. We review and synthesize existing theories of the transmission channels of the curse. This synthesis suggests that (1) relating the transmission channels to the characteristics of different types of resources, and (2) considering how other country characteristics, such as institutional quality and policy outcomes, affect the impact of natural resource wealth on development, would improve our understanding of the functioning of the curse. We then assess these two aspects empirically and find different transmission channels to be relevant for different types of resources. Furthermore, we illustrate the interaction between other country characteristics and the curse.本文基于资源类型，剖析资源诅咒（resource curse）及其传导渠道。本文梳理并整合了现有关于资源诅咒传导渠道的相关理论，本次整合研究表明，若能兼顾以下两点即可深化对资源诅咒作用机制的认知：其一，将传导渠道与不同类型资源的属性相挂钩；其二，考量制度质量、政策成效等其他国家特征如何影响自然资源富足对经济发展的作用效果。随后本文针对上述两点展开实证检验，结果发现不同的传导渠道适用于不同类型的资源。此外，本文还阐释了其他国家特征与资源诅咒之间的交互作用。
