This comprehensive book delves into the compelling arguments for and against implementing a basic income guarantee (UBI) in today's society, presenting both perspectives in alternating chapters. Through the use of tables, figures, and pictures, it illustrates key concepts and evidence, including benefit cliffs and disincentive deserts, time series macroeconomic data, business, economic, and technological change (BETC), artificial intelligence and other general purpose technologies, advanced robotics, the environmental Kuznets Curve, income distributions, democracy, social justice, dependence, autonomy, and economic freedom.
A neutral, non-partisan tone introduction provides a comprehensive definition of UBI and explores the history of universal income plans. The conclusion summarizes the main arguments for and against UBI, before surveying alternative policies such as universal basic asset, credit, service, job, and training plans. This book offers a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and individuals interested in understanding the potential benefits and challenges of implementing a UBI in the modern world.
