Technological advances in computerization and robotics threaten to
eliminate countless jobs from the labor market in the near future.
These advances have reignited the debate about universal basic
income. The essays in this collection offer unique and compelling
perspectives on the ever-changing nature of work and the
plausibility of a universal basic income to address the elimination
of jobs from the workforce. The essays address a number of topics
related to these issues, including the prospects of libertarian and
anarchist justifications for a universal basic income, the positive
impact of a basic income on intimate laborers such as sex workers
and surrogates, the nature of "bad work" and who will do it if
everyone receives a basic income, whether a universal basic income
is objectionably paternalistic, and viable alternatives to a
universal basic income. This book raises complex questions and
avenues for future research about universal basic income and the
future of work in our increasingly technological society. It will
be of keen interest to graduate students and scholars in political
philosophy, economics, political science, and public policy who are
interested in these debates.
