ABSTRACT

In the context of Korea where a discussion on basic income is just developed, we can observe the Unemployed people’s movement in France as an important case of basic income demand. Since the Modern Age in Europe, the problem of unemployment and poverty encouraged solutions as like Poor Law, unemployment assurance, and basic income. Plural ideas of basic income were born, from passive position of spontaneous assistance on economic crisis or reformist position for social equality, to radical position anti-capitalist. The Unemployed people’s movement in France in 1980s has helped to adopt the ‘minimum income of adaptation’, and joined with precarious movement, it has become radical through the ‘guaranteed income’ demand. But since 2000s, basic income movement in decline and unemployment assurance revitalized oblige us to see the problem of income with that of labor.
