Deprivation



         


Deprivation is defined as

Extreme poverty of food, money or rights. Bare subsistence,

degradation, famine, grinding poverty, homelessness,

indigence, ostracization, sacrifice, total loss, want.

I would rather define it as a potentially harmful lack of satisfaction in a significant need (biological, social or cultural). Can be absolute or relative (experienced only in comparison with other, more satisfied people)
