"Resource Curse", is the negative correlation of natural resource development and economic development.That is most of areas of abundant natural resources tend namely to slower development. It also reflects there is strong path-dependence on resources and unsustainable status in areas with abundant resources. Inevitably, there are some possibilities of "resource curse" on energy development because energy is a kind of natural resources.With abundant energy, energy development has been much accounted in western china since the Reform. Energy industry in western china that has tremendous development improves economic development of environment in western china, relieves the contradiction between supply and demand in eastern even national energy, supports economic development for the eastern region and the national.However, it seems that the development in energy industry caused the curse for economic development on self. So, analysis of "resource curse" from energy development in western china, is conducive to correctly understand function and role of energy development, reasonably control its strength and speed, promote sustainable economic development of western china.Based on the perspective of "resource curse" in energy development, This paper utilizes of theory and empirical methods, synthetically analyses the situation of western china, designs of a scientific way and proposes feasible suggestions. According to the text, it consists of the following components:The first chapter is the introduction of. This part discusses the research background, significance, methods, framework and so on.The second chapter is the literature review. It surrounds the main theory of review and comments initiated. First of all, development process of "resource curse" hypothesis is studied retrospectively. Secondly, according to two theory mains of existence and conduction, Related literature at home and abroad were summarized by system.The third chapter is theoretical basis. It defines some concepts of economic development,natural resources, "resource curse", energy and energy development. Meanwhile it explains the energy attribute and development characteristic of energy. In addition, it also explains the impact effects on regional economy development owing to development energy.The fourth chapter is status analysis of "resource curse" due to energy development in west china. This section mainly discusses the situation of energy development in west china and western economic development. And based on this, it analyses comprehensively the status of "resource curse" because of west energy development.The fifth chapter is the typical validation of resource curse effect because of energy development in xinjiang. This part analyses comprehensively the status of "resource curse" owing to xinjiang’s energy development and on this basis to analyse relation between energy development and economic development in xinjiang, making use of "resource curse" existence model with conduction mechanism model.The sixth chapter is design of the path to circumvent "resource curse" on energy development. This part makes focus on the constructing methodology, such as basic direction, fundamental principles and major methods.The last Chapter are policy Suggestions about western economic development based on energy development. Based on the analysis of the above, this article argues that specification of energy development’s mechanism, construction of economic transformation’s system and innovation of policy’s supportare the ultimate means solving "Vesource curse" problem.
