Empirical evidence suggests, however, that translating this resource wealth into stronger economic performance and a higher standard of living has proven challenging. Much has been written about the resource curse. This publication focuses on solutions to the challenges and outlines the main policy considerations and options in managing natural resource wealth, drawing on experience within and outside sub-Saharan Africa and referring closely to the latest analysis and policy advice in this area by the IMF, the World Bank, and leading academic research. A key feature of each chapter is a recommended reading list for those who wish additional, more in-depth material on these issues to further inform policymakers and other stakeholders on the theoretical and analytical underpinnings of the policy advice. 410 0$aDepartmental Papers; Departmental Paper No 2013/003 517 $aBoom, Bust or Prosperity? 517 $aBoom, bust, or prosperity? 606 $aAgricultural and Natural Resource Economics$2imf 606 $aEnvironmental and Ecological Economics: General$2imf 606 $aEnvironmental management$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aExpenditures, Public$2imf 606 $aFiscal Policy$2imf 606 $aFiscal policy$2imf 606 $aFiscal stance$2imf 606 $aMacroeconomics$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General$2imf 606 $aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: Infrastructures$2imf 606 $aNatural Resources$2imf 606 $aNatural resources$2imf 606 $aOther Public Investment and Capital Stock$2imf 606 $aPublic finance & taxation$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aPublic investment and public-private partnerships (PPP)$2imf 606 $aPublic investment spending$2imf 606 $aPublic investments$2imf 606 $aPublic-private sector cooperation$2imf 607 $aCongo, Democratic Republic of the$2imf 615 7$aAgricultural and Natural Resource Economics 615 7$aEnvironmental and Ecological Economics: General 615 7$aEnvironmental management 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aExpenditures, Public 615 7$aFiscal Policy 615 7$aFiscal policy 615 7$aFiscal stance 615 7$aMacroeconomics 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: General 615 7$aNational Government Expenditures and Related Policies: Infrastructures 615 7$aNatural Resources 615 7$aNatural resources 615 7$aOther Public Investment and Capital Stock 615 7$aPublic finance & taxation 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aPublic investment and public-private partnerships (PPP) 615 7$aPublic investment spending 615 7$aPublic investments 615 7$aPublic-private sector cooperation 700 $aLundgren$b Charlotte$01771482 701 $aThomas$b Alun$01098448 701 $aYork$b Robert$01092056 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151745503321 996 $aBoom, Bust or Prosperity?
