The book presents a provocative proposal for a universal basic income (UBI) aimed at combating poverty and social inequality. Economist Philippe Van Parijs argues that providing every individual with a guaranteed income sufficient for subsistence could address the growing wealth disparity, where the wealthiest 1% possess more than the bottom 90%. He challenges conventional views on social contribution, suggesting that UBI could support all individuals, regardless of their societal roles or activities, promoting a more equitable society.
