Abstract

This chapter broadens the scope by also investigating popular support for many other, differently designed varieties of basic income that deviate in some way from the ideal-typical definition. The chapter’s core argument is that popular support for basic income strongly depends on its policy design characteristics. To demonstrate this argument empirically, the chapter mostly uses data from newly gathered vignette experiments that ask people to rate fictive (but realistic) descriptions of concrete basic income schemes that randomly vary on a number of important policy design dimensions, such as their access, level and financing. Because these experiments are conducted in different European countries and can be linked to people’s individual characteristics, they allow us to uncover which types of basic income are (un)popular, in which contexts, and for whom.
