Basic income is the new social policy that contributes to the creation of civil society. Civil society has two characters. First, it is the sphere of freedom of communication. Secondly, it is the sphere of social reproduction. Some argue that basic income is the tool for the creation of civil society as the sphere of freedom of communication. But such view isn't sufficient for introducing basic income, for it claims the norm that the freedom of communication is very important. Others insist that basic income be the tool for the creation of civil society as the sphere of social reproduction. This view is suitable for, the reason of introducing basic income because social reproduction is relevant to all members of society. However, these arguments request people that they should be accept certain norm. Therefore, we need more general norm. Then, I examine the normative argument about basic income that advocates 'real-freedom-for-all'. This argument demands that basic income should be irrespective of work or willingness to work because the freedom is most important. Moreover, as 'freedom-for-all' must be maintain in the future, the basic income should be sustainable. Then, the basic income intends the norm, while it could be practical, because the allowance should be sustainable level. There must be two opposing arguments against the policy of basic income. First, they doubt the feasibility of basic income because of financial difficulty. Secondly, they are afraid of paternalism caused by basic income. I think the unconditionality and sustainability of basic income could bring the certain solution of these questions.
