a crude reversal the political economy of the united states crude Oil Export policy
Energy research and social science, 2017Co-Authors: Jeff D Colgan, Thijs Van De GraafAbstract:Why did the United States (US) lift its forty-year old Oil Export ban in 2015? Press coverage has offered various answers, such as the decline in crude Oil prices and the rise of US tight Oil production. Yet, these explanations are incomplete. Prices have declined in the past without a policy change and, in spite of the shale revolution, the US remains a net Oil importer. Here, we argue that the repeal of the ban was driven by the confluence of multiple streams in the policy process: a policy problem created by the spread between US and international crude prices, a policy solution advocated by a constituency with growing voice and power, and a window of opportunity offered by falling international Oil prices and the budget deal in late 2015. The analysis is a reminder that the policy process behind ostensibly rational energy policies is often less coherent than might be assumed.

a chinese resource curse the human rights effects of Oil Export dependence on china versus the united states
Journal of Peace Research, 2015Co-Authors: Julia Bader, Ursula DaxeckerAbstract:Critiques of China’s ‘Oil diplomacy’ center on its alleged disregard for transparency and human rights, yet such claims ignore that the problematic relationship between resource extraction and human rights precedes Chinese market entry. This article explores whether human rights implications are more serious for states Exporting Oil to China compared to another major Oil importer, the United States. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, we argue that Oil Export dependence on the USA affects human rights more negatively than dependence on China because of differences related to the timing of market entry. The United States established stable relationships with Oil supplier states decades ago, creating dependencies that are sufficiently long-term for the implications of the resource curse to take hold, and taking place before human rights became part of the US foreign policy agenda. In comparison, China’s late entry into global Oil markets in the early 1990s meant that market access often required the provis...

effects of Oil Export revenue on economic growth in nigeria a time varying analysis of resource curse
Resources Policy, 2019Co-Authors: D O OlayungboAbstract:Abstract This paper examines the effects of Oil revenue on economic growth by adopting the Bayesian time-varying parameter (TVP) model to further verify the resource curse hypothesis in Nigeria. The result provides new insights into the Oil curse phenomenon in Nigeria. Therefore, using annual data from 1970 to 2015, Oil revenue Export is found to positively and significantly contribute to economic growth throughout the period of study. Empirically, Nigeria's economy is found to be a resource dependent economy. It is further found that unfavourable openness and low educational quality are possible transmission channels of slow growth experienced in Nigeria despite the receipt of huge Oil revenue over the sample period. Channeling Oil Export revenue to more human capital development and tradable sectors are important for growth in the sample country. Finally, formulation, implementation and commitment to sound educational and trade policies are proposed recommendations for inclusive growth in Nigeria.

promotion of non Oil Export in nigeria empirical assessment of agricultural credit guarantee scheme fund
Social Science Research Network, 2011Co-Authors: Uchenna Efobi, Evans OsabuohienAbstract:The Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme Fund (ACGSF) was established in 1977 with the aim of enhancing commercial banks' loans to the agricultural sector in Nigeria with focus on agro-allied and agricultural production. Many years down the line, the country has witnessed poor participation in the international market with regards to non-Oil Export. The above stance was assessed with a view to establishing interaction between ACGSF and non- Oil Export using the Vector Auto-regressive (VAR) technique. The study found, among ...

2011Co-Authors: Uchenna Efobi, Evans OsabuohienAbstract:The Agricultural Credit Guarantee Scheme Fund (ACGSF) was established in 1977 with the aim of enhancing commercial banks’ loans to the agricultural sector in Nigeria with focus on agro-allied and agricultural production. Many years down the line, the country has witnessed poor participation in the international market with regards to non-Oil Export. The above stance was assessed with a view to establishing interaction between ACGSF and non-Oil Export using the Vector Auto-Regressive (VAR) technique. The study found, among others, that there exist a long-run relationship between the ACGSF and Export, but the magnitude is minimal. It was therefore recommended, inter alia, that adequate infrastructural and storage facilities, which increase the shelf-life of agricultural outputs are needed to improve non-Oil Exports in Nigeria.
