| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We scrutinized the effects of international foreign aid on welfares of donor and recipient countries in various economic environments. Firstly, we investigated how the effects of foreign aid on both countries'welfares are affected by intergenerational interdependency such as altruism and donor's sharing of burden and/or the recipient’s distribution of aid transfer. Secondly, we examined how a pay-as-you-go pension system affects the effects of foreign aid on both countries' welfares. In particular, our research succeeded in showing that international interdependency considered can trigger the possibility of the transfer paradox by improving the terms-of-trade of a donor country and/or deteriorating the terms-of-trade of a recipient. In addition, we clarified that political lobbying promotes economic growth of developing countries, which suggests that the appropriate design of political institution is required to prevent developing countries from falling into a poverty trap.
