This book is about a radical idea: the idea that each of us deserves enough money on which to live - and that it should be paid independently of our personal means, and independently of whether we work, or even want to work. The concept of ‘basic income’ has been discussed internationally and has the potential to revolutionise the way that society functions. It would provide greater security for the young, for the self-employed and entrepreneurs as well as reshaping the social welfare system in its entirety. In this book, author and academic Dr Paul O’Brien explores the arguments for and against the idea and explains how this very real proposal might work in practise.

Dr PAUL O'BRIEN is a former economic spokesperson for the Green Party/Comhaontas Glas in Ireland and former lecturer in Visual Culture in the National College of Art and Design, Dublin. He is a long-standing member of Basic Income Ireland.
