Sahip olunan doğal kaynak donanımı büyüme ve kalkınma sürecinde önemli bir üretim faktörü iken bunun plansız ve bilinçsiz bir şekilde gerek aşırı kullanımı gerekse de diğer bütün imkânların tek bu faktörle ilgili alanlara aktarımı ülkeleri kalkınamama gibi önemli bir sorunla karşı karşıya getirmektedir.  Kaynakların plansızca ve bilinçsizce kullanılması ve ekonominin dinamiğinin kaynak kullanımına bağlanması doğal kaynak laneti hipotezinin ortaya çıkmasını körüklemektedir. Bu çalışmada Panel GMM yöntemi kullanılarak Avrasya Bölgesinde doğal kaynakların ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkileri araştırılmıştır ve doğal kaynak laneti hipotezini destekleyen ampirik bulgular elde edilmiştir.
