Introduced conflict of if aid is good (Sachs for, Moyo and Easterly against).

How to effectively help the poor? Introduces example of giving out free or subsidised bed nets - will people use? Will it deter them from buying again? - randomised trials by Pascaline Dupas from UCLA.

Does a poverty trap exist? Yes: a small boost of aid/money can help to escape.
