WELCOME TO THE 18TH CONGRESS OF THE
BASIC INCOME EARTH NETWORK (BIEN)
In the 21st century social protection worldwide has come under increasing pressure
from a variety of sources. Economic, social and political inequality, marginalisation and
division is rapidly increasing, undermining the very foundations of one of the most
important social innovations of the past decades — the modern welfare state. These
pressures have come to a head in the past decade, when following the Great Crisis
policy-makers keep trying to square the circle by combining austerity with increased
activation — to disastrous effect for the most marginalised and vulnerable in society in
most cases.
There is urgent need to rethink the principles of equality, solidarity and universalism and
what tools can deliver on a key promise of the welfare state — freedom from want.
Basic income has emerged as the single-most powerful idea energising activists,
beguiling researchers and enthralling policy-makers across the world. Finland — a
leading exponent of the strong Nordic welfare state tradition — recently came to hold
a unique place in the meteoric rise of basic income in the past few years by deciding
to run the first national basic income experiment. It is therefore fitting to hold the 18th
world congress of the Basic Income European Network (BIEN) in Tampere.
On behalf of the Local Organizing Committee we wish you a productive and enjoyable
conference experience.
Jurgen De Wispelaere and Pertti Koistinen
On behalf of BIEN's Executive Committee, welcome all to this most exceptional 18th
BIEN Congress - the first in a Nordic country! The timing could not be better, nor the
theme more relevant, as Nordic states have been among the first in Europe to adopt
experiments that contain one or more features of a Universal Basic Income. If it seems
a misnomer to call experiments 'basic income', nevertheless, they have ignited debate
about basic income, presenting fresh problems and challenges relating to the concept
in a new world setting.
This congress examines what does this mean for the idea and practice of Universalism,
and for the Nordic welfare state? Much has been written about social democracy, a
concept variously defined, but certainly linked with the Nordic countries' experience.
This congress also continues the practice of running affiliate sessions, two this time, and
a local Nordic Day, which present a unique opportunity to discuss on-the-ground issues
and developments. As basic income has become a global policy topic, tapped into
but not always well understood, BIEN congresses are a much-needed space for critical
reflection and fresh ideas from engaged scholars, policy-makers and social
movements from around the world. We look forward to meeting old and welcoming
new friends in the beautiful setting of Tampere.
Louise Haagh
Chair of the BIEN Executive Committee
I am very pleased that the University of Tampere (UTA) is hosting the 18th world congress
of the Basic Income European Network (BIEN). This is a great honour for our university.
Throughout its existence of 93 years, UTA has profiled itself as a leading Finnish institute
for higher education and research in the policy-oriented social sciences. The story of
our university — from a Civic College to a School of Social Sciences in the working class
suburban area in Helsinki and now a university in one of Finland’s historically industrial
cities — is also the story of the Finnish welfare state. Both institutions were engaged in
healing the wounds of the Civil War in a newly independent Finnish state, committed
themselves to the education of students with a working class background, and are now
dedicated to the service of an expanding public sector and critical media.
Cherishing the history of our university and its impact for the development of our society
is all the more important when our university is about to take a major step: in the
beginning of next year, UTA will merge with the technical university and university of
applied sciences. Going forward, it is of utmost importance to keep the challenges of
social development and welfare at the heart of our university’s profile. Basic income
and the debate around the future of the Nordic welfare state are very much at the
centre of these challenges.
I wish you a fruitful conference with new ideas for cooperation with our university in the
future.
Liisa Laakso
Rector, University of Tampere
