Distribution Of Resources

The starting point of this chapter is the weakening ability of natural resources to meet the growing and diversifying needs of mankind. This chapter aims to draw attention to the “Ecological Footprint” as a measurable concept of impact of the production and consumption activities on the natural environment. However, every country demands more resources than it has, and developed countries, with their production and consumption patterns, are becoming the primary actors of injustice in the distribution of resources. As seen in the data used in this study, from individuals to countries, ecological footprint is growing steadily, whereas biocapacity to meet the needs is shrinking steadily. By using statistical data demonstrating the ecological footprint and biocapacity changes and differentiation among the countries by years, this chapter clearly reveals the need for a sustainable resource management.

Abstract Background: Terminally illnesses such as cancer, AIDS, dementia, and advanced heart disease will require special supportive and palliative care, although a few numbers of these patients are provided with these services.Objective: The present study was conducted aiming to perform a comparative study of supportive-palliative care provision in selected countries.Methods: This research was a descriptive-comparative study that its research population was the frameworks of palliative and supportive care provision in Egypt, Turkey, America, Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and China. These frameworks were compared across 6 dimensions of service receivers, financing, providers, service provider centers, type of services provided and training. Data collection tool has included checklist and information sources, documents, evidence, articles, books and journals collected through the internet and organizations related to the health information of selected countries and by library search. Data was investigated and analyzed using data collection tool and checklists.Findings: The findings showed that the developed countries having decentralized trusteeship structure had a more favorable status in palliative and supportive care provision. The type of services provided was a combination of mental, psychological, social, spiritual, financial, and physical and communication services. Provider centers included hospital, the elderly, and cancer, and charity centers.Conclusion: Regarding the investigation and recognition of the status of supportive-palliative care provision, it was observed that the provision of these services was a concern of the selected countries, but they did not have a defined model or pattern to provide these services. Therefore, it is suggested that each country takes a step to redesign and define frameworks and structures in the evolution of supportive-palliative cares in accordance with the particular conditions, indigenous culture, religion and other effective cases of that country and pays special attention to the role and position of supportive-palliative cares.

The presence of technology brings about a change in people's lives, with technology of all activities being more comfortable. Technological changes have taken place in the field of digital marketing, such as shopping online. The presence of an online shop provides considerable comfort in shopping activities. But with that convenience, it can also establish higher consumption patterns. This consumption pattern was analyzed using the concept of the consumption of Jean Boudrilland. The study USES a descriptive qualitative approach with the data-collection technique of structured interviews. In the study two results have been found, the first of these is consensual behaviors among sociology students where they buy goods through online shops out of sheer need. The second result was that a sociology student was seeking to remain unaffected by the ease of shopping through online shops in order to avoid the form of consumer behavior. From such exposure it can be concluded that the concept of consumptive society by Jean Boudrilland is relevant to today's lives where people tend to satisfy the urge to buy things instead of the need. Kehadiran teknologi membawa perubahan dalam kehidupan masyarakat, dengan adanya teknologi segala aktivitas dapat dilakukan dengan lebih nyaman. perubahan karena teknologi turut hadir dalam bidang digital marketing seperti hadirnya online shop. Kehadiran online shop cukup memberikan kenyamanan dalam aktivitas belanja. Namun dengan kenyamanan tersebut dapat pula membentuk pola konsumsi yang semakin tinggi. Pola konsumsi ini dianalisis menggunakan konsep masyarakat konsumsi dari Jean Boudrilland. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data yakni wawancara terstruktur. Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan dua hasil, yang pertama adanya perilaku konsumtif di kalangan mahasiswa sosiologi dimana mereka membeli barang melalui online shop karena keinginan bukan kebutuhan. Hasil yang kedua yakni ditemukan adanya mahasiswa Sosiologi yang berusaha untuk tidak terpengaruh kemudahan berbelanja melalui online shop dengan tujuan agar tidak terbentuk perilaku konsumtif. Dari pemaparan tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa konsep masyarakat konsumtif oleh Jean Baudrillard relevan dengan kehidupan saat ini dimana masyarakat cenderung memuaskan keinginan membeli suatu barang bukan atas dasar kebutuhan.
