dc.description	The overall purpose of this book is to draw attention to the confining nature of mainstream economic theorising in the policy process and to outline how a feminist economic perspective could contribute to the development of a more inclusive and realistic understanding of state welfare arrangements. The main subject of the book is an exploration of the Citizens’ Basic Income (CBI) proposal and how it presents as an invaluable opportunity to reshape the future of social security provision in advanced capitalist states. The proposal itself involves the granting of a universal and unconditional minimum income guarantee and has evolved in recent decades as a possible reform package that would address effectively the dual and often conflicting objectives of social justice and economic efficiency. However, the CBI proposal remains a theoretical concept in that no advanced capitalist state has implemented a universal, unconditional minimum income guarantee.	-
