Sommario/riassunto |
|
The present publication constitutively expands the field of discourse on the topic of basic income and explores the possibilities of its introduction as well as the opportunities and risks. Although all visionary proposals for an unconditional basic income UBI/BGE, have so far not been implemented politically, at least in democratically constituted welfare states, the question of implementation or the conditions for success and the identification of possible blockades have only been dealt with marginally. Recent publications on a BGE also show this political-institutional "blindness" and do not address enough the reasons for the failure so far. Without a transfer strategy, however, the idea will fail in Germany due to such implementation naivety. In this book, therefore, the state of the debate on basic income is developed further to the extent that it is integrated into welfare-state development processes and current challenges for the "safeguarding of |
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social security". In addition, a social-scientific classification of hitherto visionary guarantee elements of a basic income model is undertaken, linking up with the "silent" change to a socially investing state. The authors Prof. Dr. Rolf G. Heinze was Chair of General Sociology, Work and Economics at the Faculty of Social Sciences at Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) from 1988 to 2021; since the summer semester of 2021, he has been Senior Professor there and continues to be Managing Scientific Director of the Institute of Housing, Real Estate, Urban and Regional Development (InWIS) at RUB. Prof. Dr. Jürgen Schupp is a Senior Research Fellow at the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW) Berlin in the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) department and teaches sociology at Freie Universität Berlin. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Le présent ouvrage propose la première esquisse biographique réalisée en France de Piero Sraffa, économiste italien émigré à Cambridge. Il retrace l'étude de ses relations d'amitié italiennes et britanniques, |

|
donnant parfois lieu à de fructueux échanges de vues. Un chapitre traite spécifiquement de ses rapports avec le théoricien du communisme italien, Antonio Gramsci. Le lecteur découvre tour à tour le fils d'un prestigieux juriste, le révolutionnaire de Turin, l'anti-fasciste convaincu, l'ami de John Maynard Keynes, sans oublier le responsable de la publication des œuvres complètes de David Ricardo. Cette biographie permet de mieux comprendre le caractère non conformiste d'une œuvre telle que "Production de marchandises par des marchandises". |

the theoretical grounds of multidimensional well-being, inequality, and poverty measurement. Any student, researcher, and practitioner interested in the multidimensional approach should begin their journey into such a fascinating theme with this wonderful book.” —François Maniquet, Professor, Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium. A Review of the Multidimensional Approaches to the Measurement of Welfare, Inequality, and Poverty Analyzing Multidimensional Well-Being: A Quantitative Approach offers a comprehensive approach to the measurement of well-being that includes characteristics such as income, health, literacy, and housing. The author presents a systematic comparison of the alternative approaches to the measurement of multidimensional welfare, inequality, poverty, and vulnerability. The text contains real-life applications of some multidimensional aggregations (most of which have been designed by international organizations such as the United Nations Development Program and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development) that help to judge the performance of a country in the various dimensions of well-being. The text offers an evaluation of how well a society is doing with respect to achievements of all the individuals in the dimensions considered and clearly investigates how achievements in the dimensions can be evaluated from different perspectives. The author includes a detailed scrutiny of alternative techniques for setting weights to individual dimensional metrics and offers an extensive analysis into both the descriptive and welfare theoretical approaches to the concerned multi-attribute measurement and related issues. This important resource: • Contains a synthesis of multidimensional welfare, inequality, poverty, and vulnerability analysis • Examines aggregations of achievement levels in the concerned dimensions of well-being from various standpoints • Shows how to measure poverty using panel data instead of restricting attention to a single period and when we have imprecise information on dimensional achievements • Argues that multidimensional analysis is intrinsically different from marginal distributions-based analysis Written for students... |
