Description
The Case for Universal Basic Services by Anna Coote and Andrew Percy is a compelling argument for transforming our societies and planet. The authors propose expanding universal public services to everyday essentials like transport, childcare, and housing, which they believe is the most effective way to tackle pressing problems of poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation. By abandoning the old assumption that free markets and individual choice are the best solutions, Coote and Percy show that collective universal service provision can be efficient, practical, and affordable. This new policy approach has the potential to create a fairer, greener, and more democratic world. For those concerned about fighting for a better future, this book offers valuable insights into an alternative way of thinking about public services and their role in addressing some of the world's most pressing issues.
