About this video

The "Resource Course" is a phenomenon that describes the slow economic growth of a country that has plenty of mineral resources. Public Choice Theory shows that there is a relationship between property rights, public decisions, and corruption. The "Resource Course" is more frequent in countries that have weak property rights and absence of the Rule of Law.  A regression analysis shows that increases in mineral wealth have no impact on economic growth in a country that has weak Institutions and Property Rights.
