Abstract:The "Dutch disease" - the prediction that an energy boom will cause a contraction of the manufacturing sector - is investigated for the UK, the Netherlands and Norway. Co-integration and VECM statistical analyses do not provide much support for the hypothesis, either for the short- or longer-term horizons. Only for Norway do impulse response functions indicate a short-run adverse effect on manufacturing arising from the energy boom.
