Abstract

In this article we carry out, taking as a start point the existing di-vided studies, an extensive comprehensive review of the effectiveness and shortcomings of minimum income programs. Likewise, we analyze how an unconditional basic income would behave when facing the structural deficiencies previously detected in such minimum income programs.
