The Oil Curse
Аннотация: Countries that are rich in petroleum have less
democracy, less economic stability, and more frequent civil wars
than countries without oil. What explains this oil curse? And can
it be fixed? In this groundbreaking analysis, Michael L. Ross looks
at how developing nations are shaped by their mineral wealth―and
how they can turn oil from a curse into a blessing. Ross traces the
oil curse to the upheaval of the 1970s, when oil prices soared and
governments across the developing world seized control of their
countries' oil industries. Before nationalization, the oil-rich
countries looked much like the rest of the world; today, they are
50 percent more likely to be ruled by autocrats―and twice as likely
to descend into civil war―than countries without oil.
