This innovative book provides the first in-depth analysis of
participatory income and its potential role in countering endemic
poverty and unemployment in high-income countries. Heikki Hiilamo
reviews the concept of basic income and specific basic income
experiments before presenting participatory income as a viable
alternative in the fight against poverty. Highly topical, chapters
explore pressing issues such as the effects of automation on the
future of work and the links between social protection and
eco-social transition. Putting forward the argument that any reform
of social assistance should continue to enforce reciprocity with
reduced means-testing, Hiilamo explores the practical advantages of
the participation income model in reducing poverty and developing
an eco-social welfare model. Tackling one of the most heated
current debates in social policy, this book will be a key resource
for scholars and students in this field, particularly those with a
focus on welfare and labour economics, labour policy and the
sociology of work. Its use of examples and case studies will also
benefit practitioners and policy makers.
