ISBN: 978-1-947236-00-4 MOLINARI REVIEW The Molinari Review is a peer-reviewed, open-access, print-on-demand, interdiscipli- nary journal of libertarian research. We publish scholarship, sympathetic or critical, in and/or on the libertarian tradition, broadly understood as including classical liberalism, individualist anarchism, social anarchism, anarcho-capitalism, anarcho- communism, anarcho-syndicalism, anarcha-feminism, panarchism, voluntaryism, mu- tualism, agorism, distributism, bleeding-heart libertarianism, Austrianism, Georgism, public choice, and beyond – essentially, everything from Emma Goldman to Ayn Rand, C. L. R. James to F. A. Hayek, Alexis de Tocqueville to Michel Foucault. (We see exciting affiliations among these strands of the libertarian tradition; but you don’t have to agree with us about that to publish in our pages.) Disciplines in which we seek to publish include philosophy, political science, eco- nomics, history, sociology, psychology, anthropology, theology, ecology, literature, and law. We aim to enhance the visibility of libertarian scholarship, to expand the boundaries of traditional libertarian discussion, and to provide a home for cutting- edge research in the theory and practice of human liberty. INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS Submissions should be sent by email to Roderick T. Long at [email protected] as Word .doc or .docx files, prepared for blind review (i.e. all author information re- moved), and accompanied by an abstract of around 150 words as a guide for referees.

Vysoká škola CEVRO Institut Master’s Thesis Bc. Pavel Martínek Prague 2020 Vysoká škola CEVRO Institut, z.ú. The Potential Implementation of Universal Basic Income and its Actual Development Bc. Pavel Martínek Study Program: Philosophy, Politics and Economics Specialization: Austrian Economics Adviser: Mgr. Ing. Pavol Minárik, Ph.D. Master’s Thesis Prague 2020 I hereby declare that this master's thesis is my own and autonomous work. All sources and aids used have been indicated as such. All texts either quoted directly or paraphrased have been indicated by text citations. Full bibliographic details are given in the reference list which also contains internet sources containing URL. This work has not been submitted to any other examination authority. Prague, 29. 7. 2020,………………………….. Abstract The universal basic income model has gone through a long theoretical and practical development. This is evidenced by the interest of theorists dating back to the sixteenth century and several launched and still ongoing pilot projects and experiments around the world. The theoretical part of this work describes the theoretical development of the concept of basic income and compares the approaches of different schools of economic thought to this model of redistribution of income and wealth in society. The empirical part answers the question of whether the implementation of universal basic income increases the welfare of society. The research focuses on projects that have been launched in Namibia, Finland, Iran and India. Based on the used comparative analysis of the conclusions stemming from the projects and the experiments, it can be stated that universal basic income positively affects the welfare of society.

The Shape of The
2017 Aspen Annual Conference The Shape of the Nov 29 2017 #AspenAnnual2017 Contents Foreword 5 Program 6 Speakers 8 Economy and Competitiveness 24 Quality of Governance 27 Education 29 National Security and Resilience 32 Quality of Life 35 Foreword We are doing well, but could be doing far better. How do we stack up against our closest neighbors? Who should we compare ourselves to? We will be meeting for the third time this year in order to address questions about the development of our society. The Shape of the Czech Republic conference followed up on the Czech Republic: The Shape We’re In project which the Aspen Institute launched in 2015 and which sought to map the country’s status in various areas based on available data and international comparisons. The conferences last year and the year before that successfully ofered a number of answers to the question of why the Czech Republic fares poorly in comparison with similar countries and what can be done about it. The starting point was the attempt to place various aspects subject to international comparison into broader contexts: economic competitiveness, education, the functioning of public institutions, the quality of life and security. This year’s conference on the Czech Republic is connected to an international conference entitled The Shape of (Central) Europe, which allows us to examine the local situation in the context of contemporary Europe. Our thanks go to everyone who took part in the working groups, in particular their coordinators, who drafted the reports contained in this booklet. This is not an academic study intended for specialists, but material for public discussion.
