Abstract

Rising interactions of asymmetrical exchange as a consequence of unequal access to economic resources create status differences between people. In that way some people are provided with authority benefts while the others are in dependent position. The situation of economic dependence arises when the object is seen by the subject like a unique source for personal needs gratifcation. The degree of dependence is right proportional to the object’s subjective signifcance for a particular person, group, organization, etc. This statement provokes the problem of dependence as a psychological phenomenon that defnes personal behavior and the character of interactions in respect of actual needs gratifcation. Contrary, economic independence is associated with these resources that are the result of personal incomes, property, and capital dividends.
