摘要

本文采用微观分析方法，评估中国和世界银行的援助对援助项目所在地附近居民财富的影响。我们将 2008 年至 2014 年间中国和世界银行在 35 个非洲国家资助的援助项目的地理空间数据与非洲晴雨表调查第 5 轮和第 6 轮的受访者进行了匹配。结果表明，这两个援助国的援助增加了当地居民的财富。我们的传导机制测试表明，援助通过促进就业机会来影响财富。

Does Aid Improve Local Wealth? Micro-Level Evidence from Africa

This paper adopts a micro-level analysis to assess the effect of aid from China and the World Bank on the wealth of locals residing near aid project sites. We match geospatial data on aid projects financed by China and the World Bank in 35 African countries between 2008 and 2014 to respondents from rounds 5 and 6 of the Afrobarometer survey. The results indicate that aid from these two donors increases the wealth of the local population. Our transmission mechanism test suggests that aid impacts wealth by promoting employment opportunities.

期刊介绍： The Journal aims to publish the best research on international development issues in a form that is accessible to practitioners and policy-makers as well as to an academic audience. The main focus is on the social sciences - economics, politics, international relations, sociology and anthropology, as well as development studies - but we also welcome articles that blend the natural and social sciences in addressing the challenges for development. The Journal does not represent any particular school, analytical technique or methodological approach, but aims to publish high quality contributions to ideas, frameworks, policy and practice, including in transitional countries and underdeveloped areas of the Global North as well as the Global South.
