非洲擁有豐富的礦產資源,鋁土礦、鉻鐵礦、鈷、工業(yè)鉆石、錳、磷礦石、鉑族金屬、蘇打灰、蛭石和鋯等儲量全球排名第二。該地區(qū)也是這些礦物的主要全球性生產基地。這些資源占出口量的絕大一部分,在經濟方面發(fā)揮至關重要的作用。實際上,礦產資源出口強勁驅動了非洲54個國家中24個國家(44%)的商品出口。一般性經濟理解和理論意味著,源自自然資源的大量收入將產生財富、促進經濟增長和減少貧困情況??。然而,現有研究得出了混雜和相互矛盾的結果,將自然資源視為詛咒和幸福之混合體�，F在的問題是,相對于資源貧乏的國家,自然資源豐富的國家能否擁有更好的經濟增長?上述情況也正反映西非(WA)地區(qū)的情況,該地區(qū)還擁有豐富的自然資源,包括鉆石、黃金、鐵礦石、原油、鋁、鈾、鋁土礦、錳、錫和鈮鐵礦等。在西非發(fā)掘自然資源旨在促進該地區(qū)內經濟活動和改善公民生計,但是許多證據表明西非地區(qū)的情況正好相反(Stevens,2008年)。本研究的重點是研究自然資源稟賦對西非內經濟增長的影響。包括馬里在內的大多數撒哈拉以南非洲國家面臨政府在管理經濟方面無效、自然資源出口收入管理不善以及腐敗現象,從而導致經濟增長疲軟,這些情況仍然構成挑戰(zhàn)。...
