Book Synopsis A Basic Income Grant for South Africa by : Guy Standing
Download or read book A Basic Income Grant for South Africa written by Guy Standing and published by Juta and Company Ltd. This book was released on 2003 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a critical analysis of the feasibility and impact of a universal basic income grant for South Africans, which has been discussed extensively in parliament and the media for the past two years. The authors assess how comprehensive social security reform, including a universal grant, will impact on the severe inequality in the country and promote economic growth and employment. Their research reveals that it is affordable, and they argue that it would reduce the criminality that is associated with poverty and inequality. The implications for women and children and for the black majority would be considerable. At the Presidential Jobs Summit in 1998 COSATU negotiated an agreement with the government to investigate a universal social grant for all South Africans -- the Basic Income Grant. Government policy-makers, civil society stakeholders and South African and international thinkers recognised the merit of addressing the problem of poverty directly and efficiently. In March 2002 the South African government's Committee of Inquiry into Comprehensive Social Security completed its evaluation of policy options for addressing the severe levels of poverty afflicting the country. Accepting the findings of research commissioned from the Economic Policy Research Institute, the Committee's report stated that the Basic Income Grant has the potential, more than any other possible social protection intervention, to reduce poverty and promote human development and sustainable livelihoods'. This book provides an accessible collection of the current research on the issue, with chapters by both proponents and critics of the Basic Income Grant. Some of the issues discussed include: How can the grant be financed? In what ways will the grant promote job creation, economic growth and social development? And will the government demonstrate the political will to implement what is likely to be the single most effective policy for reducing poverty and eradicating destitution?
Download or read book In the Balance written by Hein Marais and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2022-07 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As jobs disappear and wages flatline, paid work is an increasingly fragile basis for dignified life. This predicament, deepened by the COVID-19 pandemic, is sparking urgent debates about alternatives such as a universal basic income (UBI). In this incisive new book, Hein Marais casts the debate about a UBI in the wider context of the dispossessing pressures of capitalism and the turmoil of global warming, pandemics and social upheaval. Marais surveys the meaning, history and appeal of a UBI before even-handedly weighing the case for and against it. The book explores the vexing questions a UBI raises about the relationship of paid work to social rights, about prevailing notions of entitlement and dependency, and about the role of the state in contemporary capitalism. Along with cost estimates for different versions of a basic income in South Africa, it discusses financing options and lays out the social, economic and political implications. Highly topical and distinctive in its approach, In the Balance: The Case for a Universal Basic Income in South Africa and Beyond is the most rounded and up-to-date examination yet of the need and prospects for a UBI in a global South setting such as South Africa.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, the South African government appointed a Committee of Inquiry into a comprehensive system of social security for South Africa to conduct a review of the present social security system in the country and to make appropriate proposals for improvement in the future. The Taylor report published in 2002 concluded that the current social assistance programmes are inadequate in addressing destitution and the prevalent poverty in the country and proposed the implementation of a universal basic income grant. Concerns were raised about the financial affordability and sustainability of such a grant. This thesis evaluated the financial feasibility of implementing a universal income grant in South Africa. The main empirical research focused on the net tax burden of implementing such a grant via increases in VAT and other indirect taxes.
