| | Mutualism (economic theory) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Mutualism is an economic theory or system based on a labor theory of value that advocates that equal amounts of labor should receive equal pay, and that this should be accomplished by trading goods and services by the use of money that is backed by a quantity of labor. | | | Mutualists believe that by establishing a democratically run mutual bank or credit union, it would be possible to issue free credit so that money could be created for the benefit of the participants rather than for the benefit of the bankers. | | | The major tenets of mutualism are free association, mutualist credit, contract (or federation), and gradualism (or dual-power). |

| | Resources - Mutualism - A Third Way for Australia - 21 June 2000 |
| | Mutualism is the number one issue in Australian politics. | | | While this may not be clear to the party professionals and spin doctors, it is the common thread running through public concerns as diverse as globalisation, regional development, community decline and law and order. | | | In the new politics, charter schools, health consumer groups, family partnerships, public housing cooperatives and mutual municipal services need to become as common as the government agencies of the Industrial Age. |

| | What mutualist bodies - bodies such as mutual life assurance societies, permanent building societies, friendly societies and co-operatives - also have in common with one another is that they are almost always a response to urgent community needs. | | | The strength of credit unions is in their character as mutualist bodies and their adherence to mutualist values and principles. | | | Friendly societies were initially a response to the need for funeral benefits, and, later, for unemployment benefits, sickness benefits and medical and hospital care. |

| | Lecture 9 -- Mutualism |
| | Recall that mutualism is the interspecific interaction in which both participants receive a net benefit. | | | A more realistic mutualism is a low-density one where density-dependent costs enter and limit the mutualistic benefits to when both participants densities are low. | | | Usually there is a cost for one or both species, and often a very fine line between mutualism and parasitism or mutualism and competition. |

| | For mutualism to work, however, national governments need to be more far-sighted in the formulation of economic policy and more flexible in its implementation. | | | The creation of a mutually beneficial international economic order requires a concomitant commitment on the part of developing countries. | | | Rather than rely on self-correcting market mechanisms, central banks and international institutions such as the International Monetary Fund will need to relax fiscal austerity requirements to ensure that borrowers and investors have access to credit and tolerate periodic deviations from economic orthodoxy such as the capital controls recently imposed by Malaysia. |

| | mutualism |
| | Mutualism is a positive reciprocal relationship between two species. | | | The need for mutualism (and thus the benefit) decreases with increased resource availability. | | | Non-symbiotic mutualism: the species do not live together, nor are dependent on each other; the relationship is facultative or opportunistic but does profit the organisms when together. |

| | Migration selectivity does not allow the establishment of mutualism but increases its stability once it is established. | | | A population dynamics approach based on a system of differential equations allows us to establish conditions for the emergence of mutualism for cases such as coelenterates-algae symbionts. | | | A central assumption of the model is that a host organism is able to discriminate, via some molecular recognition mechanisms, among different invading organisms and preferentially reject commensalists rather than bona fide symbionts. |
