1. Weeks, K. "Anti/postwork feminist politics and a case for basic income." TripleC 18:2 (June, 2020): 575-594. [doi]

   Abstract:
   This article presents a defence of the demand for a guaranteed basic income against recent Left critiques. Drawing on a series of lessons from the 1970s-era demand for Wages for Housework, I argue in favour of a demand for a liveable and universal basic income as a coalitional, antiproductivist, antifamilial reform that can help to alleviate some of the ways that the current wage-and-family system miscounts our economic contributions and fails as a system of income distribution.
