Oil Is Not a Curse: Ownership Structure and Institutions in Soviet Successor States

Oil Is Not a Curse: Ownership Structure and Institutions in Soviet Successor States Petroleum-rich countries in the developing world are thought to be cursed: destined, because of their wealth, to suffer from poor economic performance, unbalanced growth, weak states, and authoritarian regimes. This book argues that these outcomes are linked to the ownership structure that petroleum-rich states choose to manage their wealth.
