Rather, it examines the case of Norway to demonstrate that such industries can prove highly innovative and dynamic. Here, the case is compellingly made that a key empirical problem with the popular 'resource curse' argument is that some of the richest countries in the world - namely Norway, Sweden, Canada and Australia - have all developed fast-growing economies based on natural resources. Analysis of innovation and knowledge development in natural resource industries reveal important new insights about the role of learning and innovation. These insights are key to understanding variances in growth levels between natural resource-based economies. Ranestad illustrates how Norway's high economic performance is built on knowledge-based natural resource industries. While Norwegian industries may have originated because of foreign technology and expertise, they thrived due to further developments carried out by organisations within Norway. Ranestad looks at how these developments were possible due to the country's high level of human capital, capacity for knowledge absorption and ability to adapt to new global technological and economic circumstances. Kristin Ranestad is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Oslo, Norway. Her research interests are in economic history, global history and the history of technology.--$$cProvided by publisher. 000856551 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000856551 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed November 29, 2018). 000856551 650_0 $$aNatural resources$$zNorway$$xHistory. 000856551 650_0 $$aInformation policy$$zNorway. 000856551 650_0 $$aKnowledge economy$$zNorway. 000856551 650_0 $$aKnowledge, Sociology of. 000856551 651_0 $$aNorway$$xEconomic conditions. 000856551 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRanestad, Kristin.$$tKnowledge-Based Growth in Natural Resource Intensive Economies : Mining, Knowledge Development and Innovation in Norway 1860-1940.$$dCham : Palgrave Macmillan US, ©2018$$z9783319964119 000856551 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in economic history. 000856551 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000856551 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-96412-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000856551 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:856551$$pGLOBAL_SET 000856551 980__ $$aEBOOK 000856551 980__ $$aBIB 000856551 982__ $$aEbook 000856551 983__ $$aOnline 000856551 994__ $$a92$$bISE
