摘要翻译:
本文研究了1960年以来重大自然资源发现对发现前资源贫乏国家预期寿命的影响。以前的文献解释了国家财富与预期寿命之间的关系,但对资源发现对预期寿命的影响却一直保持沉默。本研究试图填补这一空白。本研究的一个重要优势在于,正如前人所认为的那样,资源发现可能是一个外生变量。本文利用1960年至2014年的纵向数据,运用差异中差异法、事件研究法和综合控制法等三种现代实证方法,对资源发现如何影响预期寿命这一研究的主要问题进行了探讨。研究结果表明,厄瓜多尔、也门、阿曼和赤道几内亚的资源发现对预期寿命有积极和显著的影响,但对欧洲国家的影响大多是负面的。

英文摘要:
This paper investigates the impacts of major natural resource discoveries since 1960 on life expectancy in the nations that they were resource poor prior to the discoveries. Previous literature explains the relation between nations wealth and life expectancy, but it has been silent about the impacts of resource discoveries on life expectancy. We attempt to fill this gap in this study. An important advantage of this study is that as the previous researchers argued resource discovery could be an exogenous variable. We use longitudinal data from 1960 to 2014 and we apply three modern empirical methods including Difference-in-Differences, Event studies, and Synthetic Control approach, to investigate the main question of the research which is 'how resource discoveries affect life expectancy?'. The findings show that resource discoveries in Ecuador, Yemen, Oman, and Equatorial Guinea have positive and significant impacts on life expectancy, but the effects for the European countries are mostly negative.
