De quoi une « allocation universelle » est-elle la rémunération ?

Abstract

La plupart des promoteurs d’une allocation universelle (AU) présentent celle-ci comme une rémunération. Mais on est en droit de s’interroger : rémunération de quoi ? Dit autrement, quelle contrepartie justifierait le versement d’une telle allocation ? Cet article propose de passer en revue les différentes conceptions qui légitiment la mise en place d’une allocation universelle sur la base d’un juste dû. En particulier, nous tentons de montrer les incohérences associées à l’idée que l’AU doit être vue comme un « revenu primaire » ou qu’elle puisse être définie comme un « revenu d’existence ». Ce faisant, nous soulignons combien une AU contribue à esquiver la question des inégalités de patrimoine et d’accès aux moyens de production.
