In this text we present the five questions we posed to the ten experts we selected (Francesca Coin, Stefano Lucarelli, Cristian Marazzi, Cristina Morini, Emanuele Murra, Laura Pennacchi, Onofrio Romano, Roberto Romano, Chiara Tripodina e Giovanna Vertova). The questions are preceded by a brief contextualization of the recent debate on basic income. Such contextualization was sent to the experts to provide a common background for their answers.
