(pages ) Think about the range of human activity on this planet - and what motivates people to behave in certain ways. Psychologists believe that people's behaviour is motivated by both needs and wants. Needs: Wants:
3 Both needs and wants are powerful motivators. They encourage people to go to school, to practice a skill, or to work at a job. Psychologist Abraham Maslow studied people's needs. He saw a pattern - and believed that everyone ranked her or his needs in the same order of importance. Maslow's pattern, or hierarchy, is shown in Figure 9-2. Look at Maslow's theory on page 210. Maslow placed basic survival needs at the bottom of the pyramid. He said that these needs are the most important. Maslow noted that once people had met their basic survival needs, they were motivated to try to meet the needs at the next level. People would work their way up through the levels until they became happy, fulfilled human beings. Not everyone accepts Maslow's theory. Some other psychologists believe that human nature is too complicated to explained this easy. Some people, for example, are motivated by a powerful need to help others. This need can sometimes motivate them to ignore their own need for security. Motives of Succesful Nation-States (page 211) The needs and wants of individuals and nation-states are very similar. Their actions tend to support their personal interests. Nations behaviours are motivated by their citizens collective needs and wants. Many successful democratic nationstates are motivated to provide the following for their citizens: Economic Stability Peace and Security Self-Determination Humanitarianism Sometimes these motives can be met within the nation-state. At other times, they inspire nations or nation-states to increase their involvement with the world at large.
4 Nation-States and Involvement in International Affairs Nation-States and Involvement in International Affairs Motive 1. Economic Stability Why Motive Inspires International Involvement *serves personal interest by looking for ways to achieve economic stability Example *involves getting an edumacation, finding a job, saving money to meet future needs *nation-states serve their national interest by seeking ways to achieve economic stability *by creating a more skilled work force, a gov t attracts more industry to its country *a national gov t might develop trade polices that support exports, strong exports keep employment levels high *gov ts provide $ for training apprentices in skilled trade *when people have jobs, they spend more $ and create a demand for goods and services ->companies will hire more workers to keep up with sales 2. Peace and Security *if successful nation-states protect their citizens, a safe, well-edumacated work force helps create economic prosperity *most nation-states are motivated to develop peaceful relations w/ other states; if not, war CAN result * nation-states motivated to create ALLIANCES to protect themselves against conflict * some nation-states believe they will be more secure if the rest of the world is free from war *society cannot function unless people feel safe doing things * nation-states promote safety and security by passing laws, creating police forces and rules for the workplace * NATO/NORAD *Canada belongs to the United Nations
5 3. Self- Determination *most people are strongly motivated to control their own lives *like individuals, nations and nationstates are strongly motivated to control their own future *some nations feel their interests will be better served if they are part of a larger nation-state *as an adult, you will probably want to make your own decisions and control your own future * Canada wanted to become independent from Great Britain, worked to achieve this * the Inuit of Nunavut, they have control over aspects of their own destiny within the nation-state of Canada 4. Humanitarianism *most people are strongly motivated to help others, at least a little bit *shovel snow for an elder, help a friend in a crisis *lots of us involve ourselves in helping *food drives or raise money those who are less fortunate for the victims of a natural disaster *nation-states are motivated to take action to relieve suffering and protect the innocent *nation-states can sometimes help the poor people within their own borders *Humanitarianism - acting to support the dignity and well being of other people *Red River floods = Manitoba Prov and Fed gov ts helped out the people there deal with the devastation *Humanitarian efforts extend beyond Canada s national border *natural disasters, disease, war, and conflict can cause tremendous suffering Canada can help

7 ==> What are some understandings of internationalism? (pages ) The photo of the earth at the beginning of this chapter inspired many people to view the earth as one big community. For many people, this idea underlined the importance of internationalism. Internationalists believe that everyone in the global community is collectively responsible for meeting the challenges that face the world - and that working co-operatively to solve problems is important. Many people came to believe that an internationalist approach could serve their own national interests. If countries co-operated, for example, to create fair and workable trade rules, then trade would increase and the economies of all nationstates would benefit. The world would become a better place for everyone. The World Health Organization (page 223) 1. When was the World Health Organization established, by whom, and what is it an example of? 2. Human health knows: 3. Why would you think contagious diseases can spread so quickly? Give three reasons? 4. Which diseases do WHO staff provide information to combat? 5. What do they collect statistics on? 6. What is one of the WHO's greatest triumphs? 7. How many people has this disease killed?
8 9. When did the WHO begin a worldwide vaccination? What was the result? Right to Play (page 224) 1. What is an NGO? What are the creation of NGO s inspired by? 2. What is important in Canada for children? 3. What obstacles exist for children in war-torn countries? 4. Which Olympic athlete led the campaign to bring this situation for children in war-torn countries to the spotlight? 5. Where was this athlete from, which event did he participate in and how many medals did he win? 6. Where did he donate much of his winnings and for what reason? 7. What did the found and what was this NGO dedicated to? 8. What is this NGO s mandate in Angola? 9. What are the benefits of this program?
9 The Arctic Council (page 224) 1. What is the Arctic Council an example of? 2. When was the Arctic council formed? 3. Which countries are members? 4. Which permanent participants are also involved? 5. What does the Arctic council promote and what is it dedicated to? 6. What is the Arctic council's priority? ==> How does internationalism benefit nations and nation-states? The two terrible world wars of the 20th century helped create support for internationalism. Many individuals and governments believed that the only hope of preventing similar wars was to join together as a world community. They believed that sharing responsibility for world affairs - and doing this openly and co-operatively - would improve everyone's security and prosperity.

* Both needs and wants are powerful motivators. They encourage people to go to school, to practice a skill, or to work at a job.
