dc.description.tableofcontentsIn this paper we investigate whether fiscal performance is affected by the presence of natural resource revenues. We compare policy outcomes from mineral-abundant municipalities and non mineral-abundant municipalities in Peru, before and after the mining windfall. We use a difference in difference approach with municipal-level data, profiting from the exogeneity of mining canon transfers. Our findings are not consistent with a significant difference in terms of public goods provisioning between canon recipient governments and non-recipient governments. We do not find that citizen participation in public governance alter these results. Mineral rich regions do not seem to be reaping the benefit of the windfall.en
