Basic Income | Livelihood
Since March 2020 the world has been experiencing a forced deceleration. More and more people associate the corona pandemic not least with man's overexploitation of nature and it has revealed the complete vulnerability of both. We have to face the facts that the virus is hitting the poor hardest worldwide, that the pandemic is cementing existing gender roles and that suddenly many of the self-employed, including artists and scientists, are losing their livelihoods.
The obvious increase in social inequality as well as the urgently needed socio-ecological transformation of our society has fuelled the debate on the (unconditional) basic income in recent months. This English publication by Adrienne Goehler deals with the mutual relationship between sustainability, basic income and collective deceleration. The work shows that in the discourse on transformation and sustainability in the fight against the constantly advancing climate change, a systematic integration of the issues of social inequality and the global creation of decent livelihoods are absolutely necessary.
