| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The argument about basic income is sometimes considered as “gender-blind”. At the same time, mainstream feminism itself rarely brings it up. There seems to be few intersections of Basic Income and Feminism.
In this research, I focus on their intersection in order to consider the implication of Basic Income for women. We can say that the expected effect on women by Basic Income is ambiguous. Is it an “Emancipation Fee” or “Hush money” for women? This question has been argued through a wide range of areas.
I review these arguments and put forth an exploratory consideration for a productive intersection of Basic Income and Feminism. In particular, I examine the effect of Basic Income on gender division of labour and women’s autonomy by comparing the two guaranteed income policies which are similar to Basic Income: Caretaker benefit and Participation Income. This work may help with figuring out a new Feminist Social Policy.
