Die versteckte Gabe. Über einige Irrtümer zum Konzept der ›Gabenökonomie‹

Hans Peter Hahn

Zeitschrift für Wirtschafts- und Unternehmensethik - Journal for Business, Economics & Ethics, 2021, vol. 22, issue 1, 28-45

Abstract: Almost 100 years old, Marcel Mauss`' essay on the gift has a long history marked by different interpretations. It is neither a study of religions nor of politics nor of universals. Nor does this study describe an assumed economic principle from a hypothetical era before the invention of money. The increasing importance of gift theory in the present is rather explained by its broad applicability, even in modern societies. Despite the dominance of financial transactions, the gift theory is vital and operational nowadays.
