Terme ou expression en français : le ferment d’une économie rentière

China’s strategy enables the continent’s most dubious regimes to build up a rentier economy based on the massive exploitation of natural resources with very little real fixed investment flowing into that country and no pressure put on the regime to change. This is particularly so in a place like the DemocraticRepublic of Congo (DRC) where there is minimal fixed investment in mining – given China’s priority to beneficiate raw materials in China.

the terms rent, rentier economy, and rentier state should first be
understood. Rent can be described as “a reward for ownership of all natural resources,” defined broadly enough to include at least five different types of fortuitous endowments: raw-material rents accrued from the sale of raw materials and/or natural resources;

Accord  philgoddard: You might need to add a few words of explanation, because not many people apart from economists will be familiar with the term. Saudi Arabia and other oil states are rentier economies because they're overdependent on one resource.

the catalyst/driving force of a rentier/rent-based economy


Explication :
'catalyst' or 'driving force' is more common in economic analysis than 'ferment'
