Why do we not see many more expropriations of investor capital by host governments? Compiling a database of expropriations within the minerals sectors of developing countries, I show that there is a cost for expropriation by a host government in the form of lower growth in the sectors of countries that expropriated in the past. It is possible to lose a bad reputation by a host government's actions after expropriation. 000139524 546__ $$aEnglish 000139524 650__ $$aEnvironmental Economics and Policy 000139524 650__ $$aInternational Relations/Trade 000139524 650__ $$aPolitical Economy 000139524 6531_ $$aExpropriation 000139524 6531_ $$aForeign direct investment 000139524 6531_ $$aNatural resources 000139524 700__ $$aDuncan, Roderick 000139524 8564_ $$9a010ca06-1b2d-44bd-a540-266d9c4771de$$s71408$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/139524/files/2006_duncan.pdf 000139524 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/139524 000139524 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:139524$$pGLOBAL_SET 000139524 912__ $$nSubmitted by Kayla Schanus (schan099@umn.edu) on 2012-11-20T21:01:55Z No. of bitstreams: 1 2006_duncan.pdf: 71408 bytes, checksum: 2b0005fb4377cf33b8418aa655f1af11 (MD5) 000139524 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2012-11-20T21:01:57Z (GMT).
