This volume will bring together international and national scholars
and activists to provide historical overviews of the main efforts
to date to pass unconditional basic income guarantee legislation in
their respective countries and/or across regions of the globe. Each
contributing author will be asked to address a specific set of
issues or substantive content. Such issues will include who are or
were the main people and groups involved in support or against such
legislative efforts, what are or were the main theoretical and
pragmatic reasons for the success or failure of BIG-related
initiatives to date, what legislative alternatives compete with BIG
for political favor, what if any relationship is there between a
country's level of economic development and factors affecting the
legislative fate of BIG measures, what the prospects are for the
future. Ideally, each contribution or chapter would be country or
region specific, although several contributors will make
international or cross-country comparisons. A concluding chapter
will identify commonalities and differences across countries and
possibly regions to the extent contributing sufficiently address a
common set of question as suggested above and it will draw lessons
for advancing social policies in general and BIG policies in
particular.
