Abstract
Much research has been conducted on the resource curse, the idea that development of natural resources can reduce economic growth. There are a variety of reasons why an abundance of natural resources might reduce economic growth, including a phenomenon referred to as Dutch Disease where a boom in local resource production leads to increased costs for other sectors. A sudden end to the resource boom or when other sectors have a higher growth rate than the extractive sector are factors that can lead to lower economic growth.
