摘要

汇款是深受严重腐败之苦的国家的重要收入来源。然而，腐败破坏了汇款的发展潜力。有鉴于此，我们建议进行政策改革，利用汇款的潜力，同时减少腐败。与以往的研究不同，我们指出了两个渠道:(1)腐败政府在其经济利益(腐败)、公共产品的提供和汇款流入增加带来的收益之间的权衡;(2)家庭对公共产品的消费相对于私人获得的公共产品替代品的消费。

Corruption, remittances, and public goods: A unified framework

Remittances are an important source of income for the very countries afflicted by high levels of corruption. However, corruption undermines the development potential of remittances. With this in mind, we propose policy reforms that harness the potential of remittances while mitigating corruption. Unlike previous studies, we point to two channels: (1) the corrupt government's trade-off between its financial interests (corruption), the provision of a public good, and the gains from a higher inflow of remittances; and (2) the household's consumption of the public good relative to that of the privately obtained substitute of the public good.
