Santens provides a thorough timeline of basic income ideas dating from 1776 to now, including details on major thinkers and publications related to the basic income.
Scott Santens, “A Brief History of Basic Income Ideas“, 2noame on Tumblr, 1 May 2014.
Santens states at the end of the timeline that he copied it for preservation purposes from the now-defunct site, incomesecurityforall.org.
Does anyone know who the original author is? I am working on a project and would like to use this.
Thank you for retrieving this list. I miss looking it up on the old website. I think it is important this will be available for people to read, and to see that the idea of a guaranteed income is not a new one, but has been around for centuries supported by many of our intellectual giants.
