Abstract
This paper explores the dynamic interactions between natural resource dependence, corruption, and tax revenue mobilization worldwide. The empirical analysis used a cross-section augmented autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) approach that accounts for time dynamics, cross-sectional heterogeneity, and cross-sectional dependence. The results show that the interaction between natural resource dependence, corruption, and tax revenue mobilization is complex and depends on the type of tax revenue. For example, reducing corruption stimulates non-resource tax revenue mobilization compared to total tax revenue; however, tax revenue mobilization is sometimes a source of corruption and evasion of natural resource rents. The results suggest that tax administration institutions need to be strengthened to limit predatory and rent-seeking behavior.
