Figure 1
The schematic diagram shows a circular conceptual framework illustrating relationships between freedom, control, constraints, and creativity using directional arrows. At the top center, a rectangular box reads “People as full members of society”, and directly below it, a smaller rectangle reads “Freedom”. On the left side of the diagram, a vertical rectangle labeled “Constraints” is positioned along the outer edge. On the far right side, a vertical rectangle labeled “Creativity” is positioned along the outer edge. From the left side, a thick curved arrow labeled “Top-down earmarking” curves downward and rightward from the area near “Freedom” toward the bottom center. At the bottom center, a rectangular box reads “Control”, and directly below it, another rectangle reads “People at the margins”. From the bottom area, a thick curved arrow on the right side labeled “Bottom-up earmarking” curves upward and leftward, pointing back toward the “Freedom” box. Together, the arrows form a continuous loop connecting freedom and control, framed by constraints on the left and creativity on the right.A schematic representation of relational work within the presented case study
