Available until 10/18/2028 #salary #work With BERNARD FRIOT I sometimes wonder what I would do if I were a rentier. If I had money that came in every month, no matter what. Would I still work, if only out of a need for social recognition? Or would I take advantage of it to do something completely different? Travel, read, drink coffee on a terrace. It's hard to know... It's quite dizzying to imagine a world where we would be free from the fear of unemployment. The economist and sociologist Bernard Friot has been working for years on a theory of lifetime salary. He defends the idea of an unconditional salary that would free us from blackmail over employment. I remember what a shock it was the very first time I came across his work. It was in his book “Émanciper le travail” (La Dispute, 2014). His lifetime salary is intended to be very different in its philosophy of universal income, which resembles it a priori. What is the difference between universal income and lifetime salary? Would people continue to work if they were not forced to? What if we were paid to do nothing?
