An Anniversary Note — BIEN’s Twenty-fifth

Guy Standing

Chapter Chapter 4 in Basic Income Guarantee and Politics, 2012, pp 55-60 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Anniversaries are poignant human moments, points on a journey, never an end in themselves. Twenty-five years ago, on September 4–6, 1986, a small group of us held a workshop on basic income and on September 6 decided to set up a network, BIEN. The memory is blurred; the documentation is scattered. However, this twenty-fifth anniversary is a testament to several aspects of BIEN, and it is perhaps acceptable to reflect on the journey so far.
