But what are the\nfeatures of UBI? What is it meant to achieve? How do we know, and\nwhat don’t we know, about its performance? What does it take to implement\nit in practice? Drawing from global evidence, literature, and survey data, this\nvolume provides a framework to elucidate issues and trade-offs in UBI with a view\nto help inform choices around its appropriateness and feasibility in different contexts.\nSpecifically, the book examines how UBI differs from or complements other\nsocial assistance programs in terms of objectives, coverage, incidence, adequacy,\nincentives, effects on poverty and inequality, financing, political economy, and\nimplementation. It also reviews past and current country experiences, surveys the\nfull range of existing policy proposals, provides original results from micro–tax benefit\nsimulations, and sets out a range of considerations around the analytics and\npractice of UBI.","brand":"World Bank Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46604464226559,"sku":"9781464814587","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_f20a07f9-b04a-49ef-95bd-a880622bfb10.jpg?v=1739763255","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781464814587","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
