Resource nationalism and protecting cultures Resource nationalism has become a common feature of state policy in many developing countries in recent years. Hugo Chavez seized control of ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips operations in Venezuela In 2009 Canada based First Quantum was forced to hand over 65% ownership of a US$550 million copper mining project in the Democratic Republic of Congo to the country’s government Until recently, resource nationalism in China took the form of restrictions on rare earth exports. Japan, the USA and the EU all expressed concerns to the WTO. As a result, China finally relaxed restrictions in 2014. Those that have natural endowments such as minerals and other commodities have been continually assessing how they can acquire more revenue from these resources. This could be done by various means – taxes, royalties or full-scale state-ownership – however they need to be vigilant in that significant charges to overseas companies might inhibit foreign direct investment (FDI) which is crucial to many countries that have plentiful natural resources. In 2011 accountants Ernst & Young identified at least 25 countries that increased or intended to increase government revenue by taxing those companies involved in the commodity industry.

The case against Shell and the Ogoni people of the Nigeria Delta Actively read through the case study sheet about the ongoing struggle of the Ogoni against oil drilling in Ogoniland. Explain the role of globalisation in this example.
