Groot (eds.) Basic Income on the Agenda: Policy Objectives and Political Changes, Amsterdam University Press, Amsterdam.
In Vandenbroucke (1999a) it is argued that responsibility-sensitive egalitarianism by itself does not lead to the imposition of natural reward, but we will not develop this issue here.

Mr Vandenbroucke's thinking on the "active welfare state" (actieve welvaartsstaat/Etat social actif), as a response to the problems the traditional welfare state is facing, is widely seen as the first coherent set of proposals put forward in Belgium since the beginning of the present "crisis of the welfare state".
Mr Vandenbroucke's ideas are reflected in the government's coalition agreement and in the government's activities - measures which have been enacted within the framework of the broad concept of the active welfare state have, most notably, included the recent "Rosetta plan" on youth employment presented by the Minister for work and employment, Laurette Onkelinx (BE9911307F).
According to Mr Vandenbroucke, the traditional welfare states are confronted with a certain number of problems, of which the most important are: the ageing of the population, the "feminisation" of the labour market, an increasing individualisation, and the transition from an industrial economy to a service economy based on information technology.
