From Feasibility to Implementation

Malcolm Torry

Chapter Chapter 10 in The Feasibility of Citizen's Income, 2016, pp 237-246 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter returns to the question of the relationship between the different feasibilities, and concludes that policy process feasibility is crucial and that the other feasibilities might also need to be in place for successful implementation. The chapter also recognizes that the policy process is not entirely rational, that new social policies that have not passed feasibility tests have sometimes been implemented, and that political accidents can enable untested policies to make the journey from idea to implementation. After surveying the results obtained in the other chapters, this final chapter concludes that implementation of Citizen’s Income one age group at a time might enable Citizen’s Incomes to be implemented for every citizen, and that implementation of a scheme all at once could be possible.
