Marx considers needs to be the point of departure for understanding the concept of benefit and its sociological significance. He holds that after benefit has developed to a certain degree, it will become needs that are strong enough to motivate involvement in social practice. Needs in this sense consist of both subjective and objective factors, namely, the drive from wants and the stimulus by the environment, including the subjective motives to satisfy the needs and the objective tool to meet the needs. The author concludes that representing the fundamental benefits of the people means encouraging the people to be actively involved with creativity on the one hand, and providing optimum conditions for the people to meet their needs and actualize their wants on the other. The key lies in maintaining harmonious and balanced relation between social development and human development.
