Are Latin Americans—Brazilians in Particular—Willing to Support an Unconditional Citizen’s Income?

Abstract

When exposed for the first time to the idea of an unconditional Citizen’s Income (CI) the reaction of many people is to reject it, either as a senseless proposal or a utopian project. Some do change their minds, but there is no doubt that the CI is an intricate and counterintuitive policy not always enthusiastically adopted at the first glance.
