Abstract

In this era of neoliberalism, standardization, and cost-cutting of social security regimes, calls for alternative proposals of income support, as in the basic income, have been sidelined in the quest for maintaining dominant targeted models. Western democracies, including Australia, have pursued welfare reforms as one way to manage the perceived challenges associated with global economic crisis, high unemployment, and economic growth (Cantillon & Van Lancker, 2013; Collard, 2013; Parker Harris, Owen, & Gould, 2012). Notions of justice and fairness in poverty response for people with a disability tend to be subsumed under neoliberal and neoconservative reforms. Given the interaction between the disability dimension and widening inequalities and poverty, income poverty is recognized as a key site of oppression and social exclusion for people with a disability (Palmer, 2011).
