Résumé

These two convictions are widely shared across the world, yet they often seem to contradict each other. Fighting inequality jeopardizes freedom ; taking freedom seriously boosts inequality. What can be done ? Can the circle be squared ? Philippe Van Parijs offers a ground-breaking solution to the dilemma. After assessing the claims of both socialism and conventional capitalism, he presents a clear and compelling alternative vision : a capitalist society offering a substantial unconditional basic income to all its members. This is not just an exercise in political theory. Van Parijs shows what his ideal of a just society means in the real world by drawing out its controversial policy implications. This fascinating book is essential reading for anyone concerned about the nature of social justice and the future of the welfare state as we move into the twenty-first century.
