Are living wages an unaffordable and unwieldy aspiration or a key
progressive reform? Demands for fair minimum incomes have dominated
national debates amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This topical book
addresses the rapidly shifting politics of minimum wages in US, the
UK, New Zealand, Canada, Ireland and Australia, where workfare has
compelled many to find low-income work and where neoliberal
thinking about minimum wages has prevailed. Analysing minimum wage
policies within a political-economy narrative, this innovative book
offers an alternative to the Basic Income narrative and identifies
the success of Living Wage campaigns as central to welfare state
change.
