Beschreibung
The increasing output-oriented effectivity and regulatory
power of socio-economic structures fail to meet human
potentials for personal, social and political unfolding.
Targeting the patterns of behaviour that underlie these
structures, the author investigates in possibilities for
transformation that arise from the awareness of needs within
the political subject. What can this awareness mean and what
are possible ways to foster awareness of own needs? The
author gives a critical overview of different understandings
of needs and connects it to practical aspects, leading
towards an own approach of doing what we have to do,
in order to be who we are.
