“RESOURCE CURSE” OR “SYSTEM CURSE”:TANZANIAS MINING INDUSTRY AND ITS DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Abstract: “Resource curse” commonly occurs in developing countries that possess abundance of resources. Tanzania is cursed. This paper, based on its mining policy evolution, analyzes its issues and challenges, which helps understand the abundant resources coexisting with poverty. Challenges in its mining first come from the international capital, which leads a flush in mining industry but in vain in contribution to its economy. A social gap is forming, which partially is revealed by the conflicts between mining giants and novices. Behind Tanzania's “resource curse” is its poor mining control and policy making.

Key words: Tanzania, mining, resource curse, international capital, treatment

摘要： 在自然资源丰富的发展中国家，“资源诅咒”现象屡见不鲜，坦桑尼亚即为其一。回顾该国矿业发展政策的历史演变，对其在实际运行中所面临的问题和挑战进行剖析，从而为理解坦桑尼亚丰富的自然资源与普遍贫困并存的现象提供参考。研究发现，坦桑尼亚矿业发展面临着多重挑战，其中最引人注目的是国际资本的主导性，这导致矿业的迅猛发展无法有效地贡献于整体经济的增长和贫困缓解等社会的发展，从而产生断裂性，大型矿产公司和小型矿产公司之间的矛盾冲突只是这种断裂性的一种体现，而隐藏于坦桑尼亚“资源诅咒”现状背后的关键性因素则是矿业治理结构和政策能力上的不足。
