Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
Brandt model- Rich North, Poor South
A personal view on QUALITY OF LIFE “People walking along a street in a western city rarely seem to smile. They look harassed and under pressure. Perhaps it is the strain of work or trying to find a job, of paying the mortgage or finding a home. In contrast, people in the poorer countries which I have visited such as Kenya, Thailand and Malaysia seem to be very much more cheerful, laid back and relaxed, and always prepared to help the visitor. Socially and culturally they are in no way ‘less developed’” Which society appears to have the preferable quality of life?
The Rich- AKA… First World Developed Industrialized Good education & Literacy Low Birth Rate & Low Death Rate Access to Health Care Low infant mortality High Life Expectancy
The Poor- AKA… Third World Undeveloped L.E.D.C- Lower Economically Developed Country Subsistence Agriculture High Birth Rate High Death Rate AIDS Poor education Low literacy levels
The Middle- AKA… MEDC- More Economically Developed Country NIC- Newly Industrialized Country Second world
