本文提供了一个概述，突出了一些主要的主题，最近的文献中的作用，亲社会的动机在提供社会服务。我们专注于从亲社会动机建模的两种替代方式获得的见解;面向行动和面向输出的利他主义。这一文献的影响，最佳激励措施的设计，激励代理人的选择及其与货币奖励的相互作用，以及利用这种动机所需的最佳组织形式。我们还讨论了政府提供的社会服务的角度来看，一个平行的文献，强调输出的不可收缩的性质，并将其与强调亲社会动机的作用的工作所产生的影响进行对比。
This article provides an overview highlighting some major themes of the recent literature on the role of pro-social motivation in the provision of social services. We focus on the insights obtained from two alternative ways of modelling pro-social motivation; action-oriented and output-oriented altruism. This literature has implications regarding the design of optimal incentives, the selection of motivated agents and its interaction with monetary rewards, and the optimal organizational form required to exploit such motivations. We also discuss the implications for government provision of social services from the perspective of a parallel literature that emphasizes the non-contractible nature of output, and contrast it with the implications derived from work emphasizing the role of pro-social motivation.
