Regional integration of two large open economies 330 3 $aThe paper provides an alternative explanation for the "resource curse" based on the income effect resulting from high government current spending in resource rich economies. Using a simple life cycle framework, we show that private investment in the non-resource sector is adversely affected if private agents expect extra government current spending financed through resource sector revenues in the future. This income channel of the resource curse is stronger for countries with lower degrees of openness and forward altruism. We empirically validate these findings by estimating non-hydrocarbon sector growth regressions using a panel of 25 oil-exporting countries over 1992-2005. 410 0$aIMF working paper ;$vWP/09/112. 606 $aResource curse 606 $aEconomic development 615 0$aResource curse. 615 0$aEconomic development. 676 $a332.1 700 $aAlichi$b Ali$01599382 701 $aArezki$b Rabah$01595842 712 02$aInternational Monetary Fund. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817629103321 996 $aAn Alternative Explanation for the Resource Curse$93922030 997 $aUNINA
