dc.description.abstractThis chapter critically examines policy responses to corruption and conflict in natural resource-dependent developing countries, including conceptual linkages made between the resource curse and transparency. Available evidence suggests sufficient reasons to re-examine the assumption that increased economic transparency necessarily translates into enhanced political accountability. The mixed track record of transparency-based policies suggests other approaches towards avoiding the resource curse should also be considered. The traditional financial opacity of extractive industries enables illicit appropriation of resource rents. Correlations between natural resource dependency and intrastate conflict are explained through reference to combative financing mechanisms.en
