摘要

摘要本文探讨了一个实证难题:在行为游戏中,刚果(金)城市居民不确定自己是否能够为家人提供足够的食物,他们会将更多的钱捐给匿名接收者。他们尤其倾向于平均分配金钱。我们认为,这种令人惊讶的亲社会行为反映了与非正式保险相关的分享规范,物质不安全的个体可能对非正式保险有更高的需求。我们进一步认为,这种共享规范在刚果城市由五旬节派教会维持,在这种情况下风险蔓延的关系。同一群高度缺乏安全感的人更有可能参加公共宗教仪式——而不是私人仪式——并在行为游戏中平均分享金钱。此外,面对高度不安全感和低不安全感的人在分享金钱方面的差距在参与者被基督教图像刺激时最大。

Prosociality and Pentecostalism in the D.R. Congo
ABSTRACT This paper explores an empirical puzzle: individuals in urban D.R. Congo who were unsure if they would be able to provide sufficient food for their families gave more of their money away to anonymous receivers in behavioral games. They were especially likely to share money evenly. We argue that this surprising prosocial behavior reflects sharing norms associated with informal insurance, for which more materially insecure individuals presumably have higher demand. We further argue that such sharing norms are sustained in urban Congo by Pentecostal churches, a nexus of risk-spreading in this context. The same group of highly insecure individuals is more likely to participate in public religious ceremonies—but not private ones—and to share money evenly in behavioral games. Moreover, the gap in money sharing between individuals facing high and low insecurity is largest when participants are primed with Christian images.
