Description

Natural mineral resources are often viewed as a major economic advantage, but growing evidence suggests they can also lead to significant economic distortions. In Sustaining Development in Mineral Economies, Richard Auty explores the resource curse thesis, examining how natural assets can negatively impact the stability and growth of developing nations. This book examines the real-world consequences of relying heavily on mineral wealth. By studying six specific ore-exporters - Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Jamaica, Zambia, and Papua New Guinea - Auty provides a detailed look at how resource dependence can cause economies to go wrong. This text is an essential resource for understanding the complex relationship between natural wealth and long-term economic health. It provides a necessary perspective on why mineral abundance does not always translate to prosperity and what these patterns mean for the future of global economic policy and development.
