'Basic Income is an idea whose time has come, and Guy Standing has
pioneered our understanding of it... Standing's analysis is vital'
Paul Mason '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.
