The first edition of this book contributed a comprehensive treatment of multiple aspects of the basic income debate. This updated, expanded edition tackles new topics that are becoming increasingly prominent in the global debate. New chapters are devoted to recent research on the history of basic income; the development and peacemaking potential of basic income in conflict zones; municipal experiments in the United States; requirements for pilot projects and experiments; and the public health implications of basic income. Existing chapters on the implementation of basic income have also been substantially updated to take account of new research on microsimulation, land value tax, local currencies, and blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, along with new material on the increasing useof opinion polls and the difficulties related to that. New political and ethical perspectives on the role of trade unions and their increasing engagement with the basic income debate are also introduced, while the section on pilot projects and experiments has been updated to cover recent political developments. Fully updated to reflect new global developments in the basic income debate, this handbook will be of interest to researchers, teachers and research-oriented policymakers in a range of fields. Malcolm Torry is the Director of the Citizen?s Basic Income Trust and Visiting Senior Fellow at the London School of Economics and Political Science, UK. His research interests include the reform of the benefits system, and particularly the Basic Income debate. 410 0$aExploring the Basic Income Guarantee,$x2662-3811 606 $aFinance, Public 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aEconomic history 606 $aLaw and economics 606 $aEnvironmental economics 606 $aEconomics 606 $aPublic Economics 606 $aLabor Economics 606 $aEconomy-wide Country Studies 606 $aLaw and Economics 606 $aEnvironmental Economics 606 $aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems 615 0$aFinance, Public. 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aEconomic history. 615 0$aLaw and economics. 615 0$aEnvironmental economics. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 14$aPublic Economics. 615 24$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aEconomy-wide Country Studies. 615 24$aLaw and Economics. 615 24$aEnvironmental Economics. 615 24$aPolitical Economy and Economic Systems. 676 $a331.23 702 $aTorry$b Malcolm$f1955- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910754087403321 996 $aThe Palgrave International Handbook of Basic Income$91992569 997 $aUNINA
