Abstract

This research explores the concept of freedom as the “lack of neediness” and examines how increased self-sufficiency among individuals could strengthen societal stability, economic independence, and overall freedom within a nation. By analyzing various social and economic theories, we can see that when people are empowered to meet their own needs, dependence on external forces lessens, allowing for a more resilient, autonomous society. In countries where individual and community self-reliance are emphasized, social structures become more adaptable and individuals gain the freedom to pursue personal and collective goals without excessive reliance on outside aid.

Introduction

Freedom is often seen as a fundamental human right, but in practice, freedom can be limited by the level of dependency individuals and societies face. This dependency can stem from economic, social, or personal sources of neediness, which restrict an individual’s autonomy and limit a nation’s resilience. For a nation to be truly free, individuals must have the ability to meet their needs without reliance on external entities, whether these are other individuals, foreign powers, or governing bodies. This paper explores how decreasing individual and societal neediness can increase overall freedom within a nation.
