Team talk:Basic Needs
From The Crowdsourced Resource-Based Economy Knowledgebase
Do we write a list of things we think we need and post them here for scrutiny?
- Sounds like a good idea! However the purpose of the team is compiling material from research already done by experts in matters of Human Need, like Maslow. There are many of them, googling needs or even googling images for needs returns a plethora of information about Need from the perspective of different academics and notes on other approaches sometimes based comparative studies on a various cultures veganforvenus (talk) 08:21, 6 May 2013 (UTC)
- Scientific approach, ey? I have access to academic papers so could be something I can look up. Cross-cultural research sounds interesting. However, do keep in mind that we will all come from a capitalist system and will be affected by addictions, thus "needing" more things than we should :(
Added a summary and a section on how to fulfil needs in rbe10k. If anything's too long or irrelevant, feel free to edit. Ideally we'd end up with a list of things that really are unique needs and proof that they'll be fulfilled in the community.
- Updated the text so that it is now impersonal, and focus on identifying needs rather than looking for solutions or considering problems. Also feel free to edit! veganforvenus (talk) 16:11, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
