中文摘要
发展中国家是否应该给予全体公民足以维持生活的资金？近年来，人们对这一构想的兴趣大幅上升，这既反映了若干现有现金转移支付项目取得的积极成果，也反映出人们对零散的、有针对性的减贫方法在缓解极端贫困方面被认为存在局限性的不满。我们就以下三个问题讨论了我们已知与未知的内容：受助者可能会如何使用这笔增加的收入，这是否会释放进一步的经济增长，以及将资金普遍发放给所有人（而非针对特定群体）是否明智。
Abstract
Should developing countries give all of their citizens enough money to live on? Interest in this idea has grown enormously in recent years, reflecting both positive results from a number of existing cash transfer programs and dissatisfaction with the perceived limitations of piecemeal, targeted approaches to reducing extreme poverty. We discuss what we know (and what we do not) about three questions: what recipients would likely do with the incremental income, whether this would unlock further economic growth, and whether giving the money to everyone (as opposed to targeting it) would be wise.
