Institutional Quality, Resource Endowment, and Economic Growth: Evidence from Cross-Country Data

ABSTRACT We empirically examine the moderating role of institutional quality on resource curse effects. The estimated results provide significant evidence for the presence of spatial autocorrelation in economic growth. We also find that institutional quality affects both local and neighboring economies, with the relationship following a U-shaped pattern, and these nonlinear influences can be attributed to resource allocation effects for the former and demonstration effects for the latter. Additionally, resource endowment moderates the relationship between institutional quality and economic performance, with the modified relationship following an inverted U-shaped pattern; this influence stems from investment expansion effects and passivation effects.
