Reliance on revenues from resource exports is common in post-conflict countries when other sectors of the economy have collapsed. But over time, many resourcerich countries underperform in the areas of economic growth and development compared to countries with fewer resources—a phenomenon referred to as the “resource curse” or “paradox of plenty.” Moreover, in Liberia, Cambodia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), high-value resources have also fueled conflict by providing a source of financing for armed groups, and by magnifying income inequality among groups or regions.
