Abstract
본 논문은 자원부국들의 천연자원 수출이 각기 다른 경제적 영향을 보이는 이유에 대해 연구하였다. 가령 라틴아메리카의 경우 다른 자원부국들과는 달리 저조한 경제성장을 보였다. 이에 대해 선행연구에서는 천연자원의 풍요가 오히려 경제성장에 부정적인 영향을 준다고 논증한 바 있다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 1인당 국민소득이 어느 수준 이상일 경우 천연자원 수출과 경제성장 간의 역의 상관관계가 존재하지 않음을 보이고 있다. 분석에 따르면, 1인당 국민소득이 낮은 라틴아메리카 국가들의 경우 풍부한 천연자원이 경제성장에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 반면, 1인당 국민소득이 높은 선진국의 경우 이러한 음의 효과가 나타나지 않았다. 이같이 천연자원 수출이 자원부국들 간 서로 다른 영향을 보인 이유는, 정부의 효율성, 법치, 부패통제 등 ‘제도의 질’이 낮은 라틴아메리카의 경우 천연자원 수출로 얻은 자원을 비효율적으로 활용하여 인적·물적 자원을 축적하지 못했으며, 이로 인해 궁극적으로 저조한 경제성장을 이루게 되었다는 데 있다.
