The extractive industries and development: The resource curse at the micro, meso and macro levels (2015, background): “…in GDP or school enrolment rates) have been found to correlate negatively with proxies of mineral abundance (Gylfason, 2001a relates this to the fact that extractive industries are often less human capital intensive; see also Birdsall et al., 2001; Papyrakis and Gerlagh, 2004; Shao and Yang, 2014).”
The Resource Curse: A Statistical Mirage? (2015, background): “This remarkably robust phenomenon is commonly attributed to the so-called resource curse the systematic tendency for resource dependence to impede economic growth and development by creating market or institutional failures (Sachs and Warner 1995, 1999, 2001; Papyrakis and Gerlagh, 2007; James and A”
Natural resource dependence, human capital accumulation, and economic growth: A combined explanation for the resource curse and the resource blessing (2014, methodology): “Compared with common manufacturing, resource-based industries generally have a lower level of technical progress and the demand for human capital (Papyrakis and Gerlagh, 2004b; Bartos, 2007; Shao and Qi, 2009b; Shao and Yang, 2011).”
Is a negative correlation between resource abundance and growth sufficient evidence that there is a “resource curse”? (2011, methodology): “In their work, Papyrakis and Gerlagh (2004, 2007) concluded that the resource curse occurs even in the highly developed U.S. states and they went on to argue that this reflected the negative indirect influences of resource abundance on growth via influences on investment, corruption and schooling.”
The curse of natural resources: An empirical investigation of U.S. counties § (2011, background): “Papyrakis and Gerlagh (2007) have recently extended this research to the U.S. and show that the resource curse also holds at the state level.”
Coal Mining and the Resource Curse in the Eastern United States (2015, unknown): “Several papers such as Gylfason (2001) and Papyrakis and Gerlagh (2004, 2007) use systems of equations to estimate direct and indirect effects.”
