FRIBIS has released volume 5 of its publication series, titled Care & Gender – Potentials & Risks of Universal Basic Income (UBI). Edited by Bernhard Neumärker and Jessica Schulz, this volume presents selected proceedings from the FRIBIS Annual Conference 2023.

Abstract:

The third annual FRIBIS conference in October 2023 centered its discussions on two previously underrepresented subjects in the Basic Income debate: care and gender. By focusing on these topics, the conference highlighted the importance of exploring basic income through an intersectional feminist lens, particularly addressing issues of care, the care economy, and the division of labor. The main conference was organized by the two international FRIBIS Teams: Care & Basic Income and Gender & Basic Income. Parallel sessions from other FRIBIS teams and members, as well as external researchers and advocates from multiple disciplines and fields of expertise, completed the program. A selection of the contributions is available in this volume.

Care & Gender – Potentials & Risks of Universal Basic Income (UBI) is now available from LIT Verlag in both print and ebook formats.
