摘要

马歇尔计划(1948-1952)是历史上规模最大的援助转移。本文估计了其对意大利战后经济发展的影响。它利用了意大利各省收到的重建赠款价值的差异。能够更快实现基础设施现代化的省份，农业产量增长更快，尤其是易腐作物。在这些省份，我们观察到对节省劳动力的机器的更大投资，更多的公司进入工业部门，以及工业和服务业劳动力的更大扩张。

Reconstruction Aid, Public Infrastructure, and Economic Development: The Case of the Marshall Plan in Italy

The Marshall Plan (1948–1952) was the largest aid transfer in history. This paper estimates its effects on Italy’s postwar economic development. It exploits differences between Italian provinces in the value of reconstruction grants they received. Provinces that could modernize their infrastructure more quickly experienced higher increases in agricultural production, especially for perishable crops. In the same provinces, we observe larger investments in labor-saving machines, the entry of more firms into the industrial sector, and a larger expansion of the industrial and service workforces.

Topics covered include money and banking, trade, manufacturing, technology, transportation, industrial organisation, labour, agriculture, servitude, demography, education, economic growth, and the role of government and regulation.
