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. The Oil Curse shows why oil wealth typically creates less economic growth than it should; why it produces jobs for men but not women; and why it creates more problems in poor states than in rich ones. It also warns that the global thirst for petroleum is causing companies to drill in increasingly poor nations, which could further spread the oil curse. This landmark book explains why good geology often leads to bad governance, and how this can be changed. 000448483 588__ $$aDescription based on print verision record. 000448483 650_0 $$aPetroleum industry and trade$$xGovernment policy$$zDeveloping countries. 000448483 650_0 $$aRevenue$$zDeveloping countries. 000448483 650_0 $$aPetroleum products$$xPrices. 000448483 650_0 $$aWomen$$zDeveloping countries$$xSocial conditions. 000448483 650_0 $$aNatural resources$$zDeveloping countries. 000448483 650_0 $$aCivil war$$zDeveloping countries. 000448483 651_0 $$aDeveloping countries$$xEconomic policy. 000448483 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000448483 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRoss, Michael, 1961-$$tOil curse.$$dPrinceton, NJ : Princeton University Press, c2012$$z9780691145457$$w(DLC) 2011021743$$w(OCoLC)730114030 000448483 8520_ $$bacq 000448483 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000448483 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=827801$$zOnline Access 000448483 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:448483$$pGLOBAL_SET 000448483 980__ $$aEBOOK 000448483 980__ $$aBIB 000448483 982__ $$aEbook 000448483 983__ $$aOnline
