From the publisher

Basic income can no longer be dismissed as a utopian idea - it's being tested worldwide. But can it truly transform economies and societies? This book dives into real-world examples, revealing how basic income reshapes lives. It explores the ripple effects of financial security-better health, stronger communities, more education, meaningful work, and engaged citizenship. By breaking the cycle of poverty, basic income unlocks access to essentials like food and housing, empowers people, and fuels long-term thinking and entrepreneurship Tying together theory with groundbreaking evidence from real-world trials, this book shows why basic income isn't just possible-it's the vital solution to our age of crisis, paving the way for a fairer society.
