Abstract

This chapter will study how a Basic Income would change individuals’ relationships with the employment market. Chapter 5 will ask how a Basic Income would affect the employment market understood as an element of a country’s economy. A further difference between the two chapters is that this chapter will take a more empirical approach to the subject, whereas Chapter 5 will rely more on economic theory. This chapter will set the scene for both this chapter and Chapter 5 by recounting some of the history of research on the relationship between Basic Income and employment, and by describing how employment markets are changing. It will then describe some pilot projects and other experiments and the lessons that we might learn from them; and it will discuss employment motivation, and how a Basic Income might relate to that. A list of future research will then be offered.
