In conclusion, this study will investigate major criticisms on basic income policy and suggest viable paths that interested researcher should take for further study on basic income.

본 연구는 최근 십 년 동안 복지영역에서 한국사회의 주요 화두 가운데 하나였던 기본소득에 대해 살펴보고자 한다. 구체적으로 기본소득의 정의에서 시작하여 기본소득의 특성 및 기본소득이 기초하고 있는 이념적 근원을 살펴보고, 더 나아가 세계 각국에서 논의되고 있는 기본소득의 다양한 유형들에 대해 개괄적으로 소개하고자 한다. 다음으로 기본소득의 도입을 둘러싼 다양한 쟁점들을 살펴보고자 한다. 대표적인 쟁점으로는 기본소득과 기존 사회보장제도와의 관계 설정, 기본소득과 노동 공급, 기본소득의 재분배 효과 및 현실적 도입 가능성이다. 따라서 기본소득에 대한 주요한 비판의 지점을 살펴보고 향후 기본소득 논의가 지향해야 할 방향에 대해 조심스러운 결론을 내리고자 한다.
