A Basic Income Handbook

Essentials of Basic Income

by Annie Miller ISBN: 978-0-9927233-7-8
Paperback booklet, 163 x 103 mm, 40 pages.
Published August 2019

Global interest in basic income (BI) has increased enormously in recent years, with the failure of many national social protection systems and the successful BI experiments in both India and Finland fuelling speculation as to its worldwide applicability. The concept remains deceptively simple, however, and difficult to define.

One aim of this booklet is to offer such a clarified definition, one which will enable these distinctions to be made.

A second aim of this booklet is to explore the implications of this more academic definition of the generic basic income.
