아렌트의 탈노동적 정치 관념과 기본소득 구상

초록

The transformation of the forms and meaning of labor in a postindustrial age leads to the crisis of labor and labor democracy. Recently various views on the future of labor and politics are expressed. Arendt’s political thought, esp. her critical account of the relation between labor and politics can serve as a foundation for the construction of the politics in post-laboring society. Based on the distinction between of the private, the social, and the political she gives a critical definition of labor as an activity to meet only biological needs. As a critical response to the modern ‘rise of the social’ and ‘the victory of labor’ she explains that the liberation from ‘labor’ and ‘the social’ is a necessary condition for the autonomy of the public realm and politics. Her critical account of the relation between labor and politics can support an alternative conception of the politics under postindustrial and post-laboring conditions. It includes the planning of Basic income. The social rights to Basic income can be accepted as the cost of political life and a prepolitical condition for the politics in postindustrial society.
