Summary

Systematic Literature Review (SLR) establishing the definition, conceptual framework, and ten Self-Sufficiency Indicators (SSI) for village-level self-sufficiency. Uses Scopus and Web of Science databases (2019–2024), NVivo coding. Framework adopts Thailand’s Sufficiency Economy Philosophy (SEP).

Key claims

  • Canonical definition: a community that can meet most basic needs independently using local resources across economic, social, environmental, and governance dimensions. LIT_001
  • SEP three principles: moderation (avoid excess), reasonableness (logical decision-making), self-immunity (resilience to external shocks). LIT_001
  • Ten SSIs confirmed when supported by multiple independent literature sources (see Table 2). LIT_001
  • Framework is conceptual; requires empirical validation through field research. LIT_001
  • Self-sufficient villages do not seek total autarky; optimal self-reliance complemented by local and regional cooperation. LIT_001
