Advocated (and attacked) by commentators across the political spectrum, paying every citizen a basic income regardless of their circumstances sounds utopian. However, as our economies are transformed and welfare states feel the strain, it has become a hotly debated issue.
In this compelling book, Louise Haagh, one of the world’s leading experts on basic income, argues that Universal Basic Income is essential to freedom, human development and democracy in the twenty-first century. She shows that, far from being a silver bullet that will transform or replace capitalism, or a sticking plaster that will extend it, it is a crucial element in a much broader task of constructing a democratic society that will promote social equality and humanist justice. She uses her unrivalled knowledge of the existing research to unearth key issues in design and implementation in a range of different contexts across the globe, highlighting the potential and pitfalls at a time of crisis in governing and public austerity.
This book will be essential reading for anyone who wants to get beyond the hype and properly understand one of the most important issues facing politics, economics and social policy today.

Condición: Como nuevo. : En este libro, Louise Haagh, una de las principales expertas mundiales en renta básica, argumenta que la Renta Básica Universal es esencial para la libertad, el desarrollo humano y la democracia en el siglo XXI. Demuestra que, lejos de ser una panacea que transformará o sustituirá el capitalismo, o un parche que lo extenderá, es un elemento crucial en una tarea mucho más amplia de construcción de una sociedad democrática que promueva la igualdad social y la justicia humanista. Utiliza su inigualable conocimiento de la investigación existente para desenterrar cuestiones clave en el diseño y la aplicación en una serie de contextos diferentes en todo el mundo, destacando el potencial y los escollos en un momento de crisis en el gobierno y la austeridad pública. Este libro será una lectura esencial para cualquiera que quiera ir más allá de la propaganda y comprender adecuadamente una de las cuestiones más importantes a las que se enfrenta la política, la economía y la política social en la actualidad.
