The Poor Law, Migration, and Economic Growth
估计了济贫法对农业劳工的救济支付导致移民减少，进而对英国经济造成的损失，发现其对国民产品的负面影响很小，甚至可能通过替代工资促进资本形成和经济增长。
The loss to the English economy caused by decreased migration resulting from relief payments to agricultural laborers is estimated. I conclude that, at worst, the Poor Law had a small negative impact on national product. If poor relief and wages were substitutes, the Poor Law may have had a positive impact on capital formation and economic growth.
