*The listing of main resources is based on UNCTAD data on export structure in 1975.
**The measure of institutional quality is a “Property Rights Index” based on data from
Keefer and Knack (2002). The index score for a country is between zero and one where
higher scores mean better institutional quality. See Appendix A for details.
***The share of primary exports in GDP in 1971 is from Sachs and Warner (1995).

Figures in bold denotes significance at least at the 90 per cent level; * at the 99 per cent
level. Robust standard errors in parentheses. The dependent variable is growth. All
regressions include a constant term and regional dummies for Latin America and
Subsaharan Africa (not reported). (a): Joint significance denotes whether the coefficient
estimates of resources, institutions and their interaction are jointly significant. All are
significant at the 99 per cent level, except the 2SLS estimates of PrimExp (96 per cent)
and MinProd (98 per cent). (b): Hausman reports the p-values of the regression-based
Hausman test for endogeneity as explained in the text. The hypothesis is that
institutions are endogenous.

Value of production of gold, silver, and diamonds as share of GDP,

average 1972 to 1980. Source: Own calculations based on US Bureau of
Mines (various years) and US Geological Survey (1999).
Is derived from the IRIS data originally constructed by Knack and
Institutions
Keefer (1995) based on data from the International Country Risk Guide.
The five Property Right Index components are Quality of the
bureaucracy, Corruption in government, and Rule of law, scoring from
0-6, and Risk of expropriation of private investment, and Repudiation
of contracts by government, scored 0-10. Higher scores mean better
quality, lower corruption and lower risks. By transforming the first
three into ten point scales (as in Keefer and Knack, 2002), the
(unweighted) sum gives an index from 0 to 50, which we rescale into an
index between zero and one. We use the average over the period 1984
to 1998. Source: Keefer and Knack (2002).
Average yearly growth rate (in per cent) between 1975 and 1998.

PPP-adjusted GDP per capita between 1975 and 1998. Source: Penn

institutions in columns A, and the interaction term of institutions and natural
resources in columns B. All regressions include a constant term and regional
