The School will consider the ethical arguments surrounding the idea of unconditional basic income\, focusing specifically on arguments appealing to interpretations of communism\, liberalism and republicanism. What are the strengths and weaknesses of these arguments? How successfully do they meet the main ethical objections to basic income\, including the objection\, itself derivable from within currents of socialist\, liberal and republican thought\, that basic income is unfair because it allows some who are able to work to live off the labour of their fellow citizens? \;
