For several years now economists have debated with human rights activists regarding their concern for workers in third world (developing) nations. Economists state that the employment provided by sweatshops in these nations, although not ideal, is better than what was available to these workers before these jobs existed. According to Maslow:_______.

Respuesta :

Answer:

in many third world countries, it is a daily struggle to meet basic physiological needs. If the wages provided by sweatshops are close to a living wage for these individuals, the economists' view may have merit.

Explanation:

In Maslow's theory, people have different hierarchy of needs. Consisting of:

-Self-Actualization (The highest)

- Self-Esteem

- Sense of Belonging

- Safety

- Physiological needs. Consist of basic needs such as food, clothing , and shelter. (The lowest)

Maslow stated that most people will focus on fulfilling the needs on the lower hierarchy before caring about the needs on the higher hierarchy.

Maslow's theory supported the claim made by the Economist.

Sweatshops in poor country often provide a standard or higher salary for the people in that country. Even though working at sweatshops definitely won't fulfill their higher needs,  Many of the citizens will still do it since they have no other opportunity to fulfill their basic needs.
