These inconsistencies emerge because of the twofold role taken up by each person, who acts both as a citizen (???? by social needs) and a customer (driven by individual demands).

Sad [:(]
I cannot find a suitable word ... affected? pushed?
What I'd like to say is that people pursue the satisfaction of both individual preferences and social needs, even though they  conflict with each other.

Thanks in advance!

A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day. (A. Schweitzer)

sensitive to social needs

carried by social needs

influenced by social needs

driven by social needs
(but that would be a repetition)
