要旨

This article discusses the idea of having a basic income in order to be allowed to become citizens. The reasoning behind the idea is that potential citizens must be able to help pay for the welfare state they are going to be a part of from the beginning of the citizenship. The guaranteed minimum income falls in two directions; whether citizenship can be a measurable entrance criteria for a guaranteed minimum income, or whether, in light of modern international mobility and globalization, the modern welfare state can offer the minimum basic income. The author writes that all current and future discussions on guaranteed minimum income needs to take into account whether international mobility is a tendency of development that welfare states should take into consideration.
