Abstract:	The exploration of natural resources may represent an economic advantage for locations where they occur. However, the literature has shown that in countries that depend on the exploitation of natural resources, the economic growth tends to be lower – a circumstance that came to be named as natural resource curse. Factors linked to the interests and the management of income from this type of exploitation would explain this negative effect on growth. After the State encounters a location abundant in natural resources, it exerts its constitutional right over these resources and then provides monetary compensation to the municipalities, to be spent at their own discretion, in exchange for the right to exploit the natural resources in their territory. This research analyzes how the abundance of natural resources and government spending is related to the economic growth of municipalities in the 2003-2012 period. To this end, the study has a sample of 4.573 municipalities and 22.865 observations, in addition to sub-samples with only municipalities that received income from the exploitation of water, minerals and oil resources every year. The empirical models are based on regression models with variable interaction, to show how the public spending conditioning the abundance in natural resources is related to the growth of cities. All models were estimated by Least Square Dummy Variable with time specific effects. The survey results point to a negative relation between natural resource abundance and economic growth of the cities, especially when considering the abundance in mineral and oil resources. As for the productivity of the public expenditure – in general, and for all municipalities –, the current spending and its components and, especially, the spending on education were the main contributors to economic growth. The results also show evidence that the effect of natural resources on growth was sensitive to the productivity of the public spending of municipalities. It can be verified that the productivity of public expenditure did not change significantly between abundant/not abundant and more/less abundant municipalities in natural resources. Therefore, there is evidence to support the existence of the resource curse in Brazilian municipalities during the period of study, part of which can be explained by the low contribution of natural resource revenues for the productivity of public spending.
