Nevertheless the present study shows that this abundance and the increasing export of the natural resources does not entail necessarily to an economic growth of “the surpassed” country, instead the abundance would have to be accompanied of an institutional frame of good quality that encourages the interchange and the production in detriment of redistributive activities.
