Do Oil Windfalls Improve Living Standards? Evidence from Brazil
Caselli, Francesco; Michaels, Guy - Centre for Economic Performance, LSE - 2009
We use variation in oil output among Brazilian municipalities to investigate the effects of resource windfalls. We find muted effects of oil through market channels: offshore oil has no effect on municipal non-oil GDP or its composition, while onshore oil has only modest effects on non-oil GDP...
