Corruption, Natural Resources and Development provides a fresh and
extensive discussion of corruption issues in natural resources
sectors. Reflecting on recent debates in corruption research and
revisiting resource curse challenges in light of political ecology
approaches, this volume provides a series of nuanced and
policy-relevant case studies analyzing patterns of corruption
around natural resources and options to reach anti-corruption
goals. Using corruption case studies across a wide spectrum of
natural resource sectors from around the world, the expert
contributions explore political ecology as a means of analysing
resource curse challenges. The potential for new variations of the
resource curse in the forest and urban land sectors and the
effectiveness of anti-corruption policies in resource sectors are
considered in depth. Corruption in oil, gas, mining, fisheries,
biofuel, wildlife, forestry and urban land are all covered, and
potential solutions discussed. This forward-thinking book is
essential reading for students and academics in the fields of
development studies, political ecology, corruption, development
economics and international political economy. The evidence and
policy solutions included will be of great appeal to policymakers
and practitioners. Contributors include: I. Amundsen, F. Boamah,
