Abstract

Current international approaches to the link between natural resource wealth and conflict fail to address the root causes of these wars and their gendered dimensions. In this article Eliana Cusato argues that these current approaches uphold a specific image of the relationship between natural resources, war and peace, premised on the so-called ‘resource curse’ theory which has shaped our understanding of the problem of conflict resources and the legal and policy solutions to address it.
