Avoiding the Resource Curse: Indigenous Communities and Canada’s Oil Sands
研究了加拿大阿尔伯塔省北部石油产业快速增长引发的资源诅咒问题,分析了原住民社区如何在区域层面经历和管理资源诅咒症状,并基于自然、金融、人力和社会资本框架提出应对建议。
Concerns about a resource curse in Canada have been raised in response to rapid growth in the petroleum sector in northern Alberta. In previous research, there has been little consideration of how symptoms of the resource curse are experienced and managed at a regional scale and by Indigenous communities. An analysis of effects and responses is offered using a natural, financial, human and social capitals framework. Without consideration of how to manage the symptoms of the resource curse, oil and gas activity is likely to further disadvantage Indigenous populations already living on the margins of Canadian society.
