Basic Income: And How We Can Make It Happen: Pelican Books
Autor Guy Standingen Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 mai 2017
'Guy Standing has been at the forefront of the movement for nearly 4 decades, and in this superb and thorough survey he explains how it works and why it has the potential to revitalise life and democracy in our societies. This is an essential book.' Brian Eno
Shouldn't everyone receive a stake in society's wealth?
Could we create a fairer world by granting a guaranteed income to all?
What would this mean for our health, wealth and happiness?
Basic Income is a regular cash transfer from the state, received by all individual citizens. It is an acknowledgement that everyone plays a part in generating the wealth currently enjoyed only by a few. Political parties across the world are now adopting it as official policy and the idea generates headlines every day. Guy Standing has been at the forefront of thought about Basic Income for the past thirty years, and in this book he covers in authoritative detail its effects on the economy, poverty, work and labour; dissects and disproves the standard arguments against Basic Income; explains what we can learn from pilots across the world and illustrates exactly why a Basic Income has now become such an urgent necessity.

Recenzii
Basic
Income
is
an
idea
whose
time
has
come,
and
Guy
Standing
has
pioneered
our
understanding
of
it
-
not
just
of
the
concept
but
of
the
challenges
it
is
designed
to
meet:
rapid
automation
and
the
emergence
of
a
precarious
workforce
for
whom
wages
derived
from
work
will
never
be
enough.
As
we
move
into
an
age
where
work
and
leisure
become
blurred,
and
work
dissociated
from
incomes,
Standing's
analysis
is
vital.
Guy Standing's work in this area has been invaluable...I would urge all parliamentarians to pore over his findings and consider his conclusions
Praise forThe Precariat:'A very important book' Noam Chomsky. 'Buy Guy Standing's book,The Precariat.Or nick / borrow it' John Harris,
In Basic Income, Guy Standing provides a compelling and thoughtful review of the motivations and options for as well as common objections to universal basic income, making this an important book for anyone interested in ensuring we collectively create an inclusive, human-centered future
This is a compelling and thoughtful book that looks into the case for a universal basic income.
Guy Standing tackles the history behind basic income by presenting economic, financial, technological, and medical studies that give us a glimpse about what a world with basic income might look like.
Economic inequality and ending poverty are some of the defining issues of our time, Standing's book lays out a future.
For a radical idea to become accepted as common sense, it often needs a practical guide to the concept and its implementation. This book makes a significant contribution to the heavy lifting needed to move basic income from an idea on the periphery to a policy of the mainstream in a rapidly changing and challenging economy
Universal Basic Income may be the most promising social idea of our time. Guy Standing has been at the forefront of the movement for nearly 4 decades, and in this superb and thorough survey he explains how it works and why it has the potential to revitalise life and democracy in our societies.This is an essential book.
A universal basic income is clearly an idea whose time has come. Guy Standing's book powerfully explains why and also makes the ethical and ecological case. It's an essential read for anyone interested in social and economic justice and an important contribution to the debate about introducing a basic income.
