Basic
Income is a payment made by the state, as a
right of citizenship to every full member or
resident of a society, even if he or she does
not work or is unwilling to accept a job if
offered, and irrespective of whether he or she
is rich or poor, in other words, irrespective
of other possible sources of income and domestic
arrangements.
The
Association Basic Income Network appeared at
the beginning of 2001 as the initiative of a
number of people who had been working for over
a decade to promote Basic Income, whether under
this or other names. Article 4 of the Basic
Income Network's Statutes says: "the goals of
this Association are to promote, and to make
more available to the public, studies and scientific
research on Basic Income in order to foster
better knowledge of this proposal and its viability".
The Basic Income Network has been an official
section of the Basic
Income European Network
(BIEN) since it was recognised as such at the
assembly that was held in Geneva on 14 September
2002.
This website, coordinated by Daniel Raventós,
aims to constitute a resource for people and
groups interested in the basic principles, and
the academic, social and political justifications
of Basic Income. It also offers information
about events, initiatives and discussions related
with the proposal. Please contact Àlex Boso, Sandra
González, Francisco
Ramos
or Daniel
Raventós
about any initiatives or suggestions for collaboration,
exchange of documents or any other event related
with Basic Income.
