摘要

政治家、技术官僚还是自由市场应该指导发展中国家的经济发展？各国的历史发展道路千差万别。公众对发展模式的看法也因空间和时间而异。利用来自AidData的中国援助数据和第二轮非洲晴雨表调查，我们研究了2000-2005年中国援助如何影响16个非洲国家的地方经济领导偏好。我们的因果识别策略是将访谈时居住在实施中国项目的援助项目现场附近的受访者（治疗组）与访谈后不久居住在启动中国项目的现场附近的个人（对照组）的偏好进行比较。我们发现，中国的援助增加了当地人民对经济专家管理经济的支持。另一方面，世界银行的援助对地方对经济领导人的偏好没有影响。

The Lure of Technocracy? Chinese Aid and Local Preferences for Development Leadership in Africa

Should politicians, technocrats, or the free market guide the economic development of a developing country? The historical development paths of countries vary widely. Public opinion concerning development models also differs across space and over time. Using Chinese aid data from AidData and the second round Afrobarometer survey, we study how Chinese aid affects local preferences for economic leadership in sixteen African countries, 2000–2005. Our causal identification strategy is to compare the preferences of respondents who lived near an aid project site where a Chinese project had been implemented at the time of the interview (treated group) to individuals who lived close to a site where a Chinese project would be initiated shortly after the interview (control group). We find that Chinese aid increases the local population's support for economic experts to run the economy. World Bank aid, on the other hand, has no impact on local preferences for economic leadership.

期刊介绍： Reflecting the diverse, comparative and multidisciplinary nature of the field, Foreign Policy Analysis provides an open forum for research publication that enhances the communication of concepts and ideas across theoretical, methodological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries. By emphasizing accessibility of content for scholars of all perspectives and approaches in the editorial and review process, Foreign Policy Analysis serves as a source for efforts at theoretical and methodological integration and deepening the conceptual debates throughout this rich and complex academic research tradition. Foreign policy analysis, as a field of study, is characterized by its actor-specific focus. The underlying, often implicit argument is that the source of international politics and change in international politics is human beings, acting individually or in groups. In the simplest terms, foreign policy analysis is the study of the process, effects, causes or outputs of foreign policy decision-making in either a comparative or case-specific manner.
