  5. 24. The Natural Resource Curse at the Regional Level? : The Case of Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik och samhälle

    Författare :Carl Bellerud; [2020]

    Sammanfattning : The resource curse thesis states that countries with an abundance of natural resources tend to experience lower economic growth rates. However, does this theory apply also to the regional level? The purpose of this thesis is to both test the natural resources curse theory at the regional level in Sweden, as well to examine if different types of natural resource dependencies appear to have the same effect on regional income growth in the country.
