2005年在苏格兰举行的八国集团首脑会议重点关注工业化世界致力于促进非洲和发展中世界其他地区的经济/社会发展。关于援助交付的辩论是在对外国援助可能带来的好处持怀疑态度的气氛中进行的。例如，在首脑会议期间，许多报纸报道了货币基金组织最近的研究，使人对援助支出的有效性产生怀疑。1这一悲观消息与最近的一些学术文献形成鲜明对比。学术文献中的证据平衡--在学术界之外没有得到太多关注--是，平均而言，援助确实对人类发展有一些有益的影响(Addison等人)。2005年；Clemens等人。2004年)。这并不是说援助将永远缩小南北半球之间的收入差距，而是说，平均而言，接受援助的人的发展成果比没有援助的情况下更好。
The 2005 G8 summit in Scotland focused attention on the commitment of the industrialized world to promoting economic/social development in Africa and other parts of the developing world. The debates about aid delivery took place in an atmosphere of scepticism about the benefits that foreign aid might bring. For example, at the time of the summit, many newspapers reported recent IMF research casting doubt at the effectiveness of aid expenditure.1 This pessimistic news contrasts strongly with some of the recent academic literature. The balance of evidence in the academic literature — which has not received a great deal of attention outside the academic community — is that, on average, aid does have some beneficial impact on human development (Addison et al. 2005; Clemens et al. 2004). This is not to say that aid will ever close the income gap between the northern and southern hemispheres, but rather that aid recipients experience better development outcomes, on average, than they would in the absence of aid.
