Abstract

The health emergency has highlighted the need to articulate cross-cutting social measures so that both the most vulnerable people and productive sectors are not left behind, with the risk of timeliness and increased poverty appreciated in the future if not acted immediately. Within this context, a new minimum income called Minimum Vital Income was born, in an accelerated but necessary way, whose objective is to correct the high levels of inequality, un subsidized unemployment and extreme poverty in Spain, levels that, until now, have not been fully corrected with the regional models of minimum income that have also been aggravated by the Covid-19 health crisis. This new non-contributory benefit embodies an objective and fundamental advance in the model of the Social State that the Spanish Constitution proclaims in article 1.1. We are facing a new social right of a subjective nature of Spanish citizens and people legally resident in Spain, linked to the state of need, whose objective is to prevent the risk of poverty and social exclusion. This study analyses the minimum living income with special attention in the collective with disabilities.
