Basic Income in the Finnish Public Discussion in 2006-2012
Johanna Perkiö PhD student School of Social Sciences and Humanities University of Tampere [email protected] Paper to be presented at the 14th BIEN Congress in Munich 14-16 September 2012 Paper in progress (first draft) The Struggle over Interpretation: Basic Income in the Finnish Public Discussion in 2006-2012 Introduction The paper addresses the public discussion on basic income in Finland in 2006-2012 from the analytical viewpoint of historical institutionalism and studies on the role of ideas in policy processes. The approach is interested in the questions such as how the policy idea (e.g. basic income) has evolved over time and how it is interpreted, argued and justified by political actors. The ideas are seen as powerful drivers of political change (combined with socio-economic structures, institutional constraints and political power relations). The special interest of the paper is framing, i.e. the "linguistic lenses" through which the idea of basic income is viewed. Basic income (BI) has been regularly discussed in Finland since the early 1980s.1 All along, the idea has gained support - as well as resistance - across the political divide. The public discussion on BI was widespread during the 1980-1990s and again from 2006 onwards. In between, there was a silent period. The latter period (from 2006 onwards) can be roughly divided into two peaks: 2006- 2007 and 2011-2012. The public discussion in the earlier period (~1980-2000) and in the beginning of the latter period (2006-2007) is relatively well documented (see Lahtinen 1992; Andersson 2000; Ylikahri 2007; Ikkala 2008; Julkunen 2009). -

Basic Income with High Open Innovation Dynamics: the Way to the Entrepreneurial State

Governments should move from a market-failure-oriented to a system-failure-oriented approach to understanding this problem, and transform to an entrepreneurial state to motivate the Schumpeterian dynamics of open innovation. We want to answer the following research question in this study: “How can a government enact policies to conquer the growth limits imposed on the economy by inequality or the control of big businesses?” First, we conducted a literature review to establish the concept of building a causal loop model of basic income with open innovation dynamics. Second, we built a causal loop model which includes basic income and all factors of open innovation dynamics. Third, we proved our causal loop model through a meta-analysis of global cases of basic income. Our research indicates that reflective basic income with permissionless open innovation, capital fluidity, a sharing economy, and a platform tax can motivate open innovation dynamics and arrive at a method by which an entrepreneurial state can conquer the growth limits of capitalism. -

OASIS Australia Articles 1999-2002
OASIS - Australia Organisation Advocating Support Income Studies in Australia Convenor - Allan McDonald 28 Prince St Urangan Qld. 4655. Ph/Fax 07 4128-9971 E-mail - [email protected] URL www.satcom.net.au/supportincome ______________________________________________ UNEMPLOYMENT A SEARCH FOR A SOLUTION A Discussion Paper prepared by Allan McDonald, June 1999. OASIS-Australia, originally established in 1989, is a small, loosely knit group of people within and outside Australia who are concerned about the continuing effects of high unemployment and seek a solution which lead to full employment or work for all. Prepared by Allan McDonald, this paper reflects the contributions, opinions and comments expressed from time to time by the many people who have been associated with the group during the past ten years. INTRODUCTION and SUMMARY Unemployment is recognised world-wide as one of the greatest social problems facing all industrialised nations today, and Australia is no exception. Unemployment in Australia is not only a social problem of considerable magnitude in its own right, but it contributes directly and indirectly to a myriad of problems in our society. Why is it that the problem of high unemployment - a problem that has been with us for almost three decades - receives such scant political attention? During the last federal election campaign in 1998, when the unemployment rate was 8 per cent and there were almost 800,000 in the labour force who were "surplus to requirements", all major parties failed to claim any commitment to achieving a solution. The Coalition made it quite clear that the main topic was tax reform. -

Ольга ПИЩУЛІНА, провідний експерт соціальних і гендерних програм Центру Разумкова ЕКОНОМІЧНА МОДЕЛЬ «БЕЗУМОВНОГО БАЗОВОГО ДОХОДУ»: НОВА СОЦІАЛЬНА АЛЬТЕРНАТИВА Сьогодні розвинуті країни досягли межі потенційних резервів соціального розвитку. Вихід із системної соціальної кризи передбачає вирішення завдань радикальної перебудови економічних, соціальних і політичних інститутів суспільства. В цьому контексті набувають актуальності питання пошуку нової економічної та соціальної моделі, нові підходи та можливі альтернативи, що можуть замінити існуючу систему соціального захисту. Передумови створення нової концепції Однією з найгостріших проблем сьогодення є проблема зайнятості1. Число безробітних і частково зайнятих у світі постійно збільшується. Інноваційні технології зумовлюють скорочення кількості робочих місць, а відтак виникають складності зі створенням нових робочих місць. Тому слід мати на увазі, що криза зайнятості в сучасних умовах може бути довготривалою, якщо не постійною. Суспільству буде потрібно дедалі менше працюючих людей для виробництва необхідного. Минулого року ризики безробіття та структурної зайнятості були віднесені до п‟ятірки глобальних ризиків, поряд з такими, як міждержавні конфлікти, природні катаклізми, майнове розшарування та руйнування державних інститутів, а також ризики втрати влади національними урядами2. Іншою проблемою є криза системи соціального регулювання та соціального захисту. Сьогодні дедалі частіше говорять, що людство наближається до нової ери розвитку та поточні соціальні програми вже не є актуальними3. -
The Citizen's Basic Income As an Instrument to Help the Transition to Democracy
The Citizen’s Basic Income to Build Democracy and Justice Essay presented to NOPOOR Project in Paris, June 12 2012 1 Eduardo Matarazzo Suplicy It is an honor for me to be invited to participate in this Kick-off Meeting of the NOPOOR Project, organized by the Development Institutions & Mondialization, DIAL, and the Institut de Recherche pour le Development, IRD, in Paris June 11th to 13th. It is, undoubtedly, a very relevant opportunity to exchange ideas about the experiences of so many countries, in the five continents, about how we can raise the level of justice in our societies, with freedom, by democratic means, so as to live with a sense of solidarity and peace. As a Brazilian Senator, member of the Workers’ Party (Partido dos Trabalhadores), author of Law 10.835/2004, that institutes a Citizen’s Basic Income to all residents of Brazil, including those foreigners who have lived in Brazil for five years or more, no matter the origin, race, sex, age or socioeconomic condition, and also Co-President of Honor of the Basic Income Earth Network – BIEN – I am happy to bring you information about what is going on in my country, and about the development of this proposal in other parts of the world. According to the law, approved by consensus of all parties, in December 2002 in the Federal Senate, and in December 2003, in the Chamber of Deputies, and then sanctioned by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in January 8th, 2004, the Citizen’s Basic Income will be an annual monetary benefit, equal to all, sufficient to attend the basic needs of each person. -
