 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_human_needs>*Fundamental human
needs*, according to the school of "Human Scale Development" developed
by Manfred
Max-Neef <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manfred_Max-Neef> and others (Antonio
Elizalde and Martin Hopenhayn), are seen as
ontological<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontology> (stemming
from the condition of being human), are few, finite and classifiable (as
distinct from the conventional notion of conventional
economic<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economics>
 "wants <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wants>" that are infinite and
insatiable).


 Max-Neef classifies the fundamental human needs as:

   - subsistence,
   - protection,
   - affection,
   - understanding,
   - participation,
   - leisure,
   - creation,
   - identity and
   - freedom.

Needs are also defined according to the existential categories of being,
having, doing and interacting, and from these dimensions, a 36 cell matrix
is developed [4]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_human_needs#cite_note-3>
