自1965年以来,各国的经济增长与自然资本在国民财富中的份额成反比。从丰富的自然资源到经济发展受阻的四个主要传播渠道进行了讨论:(a)荷兰病,(B)寻租,(c)过度自信,(d)忽视教育。公共教育支出相对于国民收入的比例、女童预期受教育年限以及中学总入学率都显示出与自然资本在各国国民财富中所占份额呈反比关系。自然资本似乎排挤了人力资本,从而减缓了经济发展的速度。(C)2001 Elsevier Science B,V.保留所有权利。
Economic growth since 1965 has varied inversely with the share of natural capital in national wealth across countries. Four main channels of transmission from abundant natural resources to stunted economic development are discussed: (a) the Dutch disease, (b) rent seeking, (c) overconfidence, and (d) neglect of education. Public expenditure on education relative to national income, expected years of schooling for girls, and gross secondary-school enrolment are all shown to be inversely related to the share of natural capital in national wealth across countries. Natural capital appears to crowd out human capital, thereby slowing down the pace of economic development. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B,V. All rights reserved.
