Resource Endowments

According to one prominent theory of development, a country’s wealth is primarily explained by the quality of its institutions. Leaning on that view, several political theorists have defended two normative conclusions. The first is that we have no reason for concern, from the point of view of justice, if some countries have greater natural resource endowments than others. The second is that proposals for redistribution across borders are likely to be superfluous. Advocates of global redistribution have not yet grappled with these momentous arguments, or shown whether, and how, they might be rebuffed. This article does just that.

Onshore Australian acreage releases and investment opportunities occurring in 2012 in Australia’s states and the Northern Territory are summarised. Diverse exploration opportunities exist for petroleum explorers in onshore basins, including potential for unconventional targets such as shale gas. The states and Northern Territory believe there are high prospects for significant new conventional and unconventional developments onshore. Australian state and territory governments continue initiatives to encourage exploration to realise their natural resource endowments. This includes pre-competitive basin studies, cost-effective and speedy provision of digital exploration data, transparent regulatory regimes, provision of effective land access regimes, internationally competitive royalty regimes, and promotion of acreage releases nationally and internationally.

Egalitarian Theory

What constraints does justice impose on our appropriation, or our holdings, of natural resources? This chapter examines several competing answers to that question. It rejects right-libertarian and minimalist views on resource justice, and instead argues in favour of an egalitarian approach. It then moves on to address some important challenges to an egalitarian theory of resource justice. For instance, it is sometimes argued that the ‘resource curse’ shows that natural resource endowments make little difference to economic growth. If so, egalitarian interest in their distribution is misplaced. The chapter shows how egalitarians should respond to this challenge. It also addresses objections from relationist scholars of global justice, and from those who believe that individual nations or states might have special claims over the resources they control.

The Right

In recent years economists have come to see rich natural resource endowments as a "curse" that inevitably slows economic growth. Nonetheless, as the examples of a number of countries show, this situation is not fatal. The article argues that serious challenges posed by resource dependence can be overcome if accompanied by the right economic policies. The paper looks specifically at Russia as a prominent example of a resource-based economy and makes recommendations that would help it to sustain high growth.
