In this timely and groundbreaking book, economists and industry experts explore the transformative power of knowledge-based growth in natural resource economies. They provide a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of knowledge-based growth, and offer practical advice on how to implement knowledge-based strategies in resource-rich countries.

The book is divided into four parts:

The foundations of knowledge-based growth: This section explores the theoretical underpinnings of knowledge-based growth, and discusses the key drivers of knowledge creation and diffusion.
Knowledge-based growth in natural resource economies: This section examines the specific challenges and opportunities facing natural resource economies in the transition to a knowledge-based economy.
Policies for knowledge-based growth: This section provides practical guidance on how to develop and implement policies that promote knowledge-based growth in resource-rich countries.
Case studies of knowledge-based growth: This section presents case studies of countries that have successfully transitioned to a knowledge-based economy, and examines the lessons that can be learned from their experiences.

Knowledge Based Growth In Natural Resource Intensive Economies is essential reading for policymakers, business leaders, and anyone interested in the future of natural resource economies. It provides a roadmap for how resource-rich countries can diversify their economies, create jobs, and improve their living standards.

Benefits of Knowledge Based Growth

The benefits of knowledge-based growth are manifold. For resource-rich countries, knowledge-based growth can help:

Diversify the economy and reduce reliance on natural resource exports
Create jobs and improve living standards
Improve productivity and competitiveness
Promote innovation and technological development
Transition to a sustainable economy

Knowledge-based growth is not a quick fix, but it is a sustainable path to economic prosperity. It requires a long-term commitment to education, research, and innovation. However, the rewards can be great, and the benefits can last for generations to come.
