%X with the publication of las condiciones materiales de la libertad, daniel ravent¨®s stresses the normative defense of basic income as a way to bestow material independence upon all citizens. this project is shown as an attempt to convey into contemporary world the political aspirations of 17th and 18th century revolutionary democratic republicanism and, later, those of the main body of the socialist tradition, that is: to extirpate the roots of all those asymmetries of power that permeate social life and to put a break on all forms of dispossession of those material conditions that are needed by individuals to lead a life under conditions of non-domination. in this text i discuss some of the philosophical implications of these postulates and i give an outlook on some of the debates that this line of analysis arouses in the domain of moral and political philosophy.
