| | Mutualism (economic theory) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | 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 labor theory of value holds that the actual price of a thing (or the "true cost") is the amount of labor that was undertaken to produce it. | | | economic theory or system based on the labor theory of value which states that equal amounts of labor should receive equal pay. |

| | Economics - |
| | In marginalist economic theory, the price level is determined by the marginal cost and marginal utility. | | | In general, the theory claims that where goods are traded in a market at a price where consumers demand more goods than businesses are prepared to supply, this shortage will tend to increase the price of the goods. | | | An example of the confirmative value of economic theory would be confirmation (or dismissal) of theories concerning the relation between marginal tax rates and the deficit. |

| | Mutualism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | One way to tackle this question is to look at an interaction between two individuals of these species, and estimate their costs and benefits from each kind of behaviour. | | | The price of trade is determined by balance between supply and demand for the benefits exchanged. | | | These do not 'play along' and try maximizing their own net benefit by reducing the cost of the interaction from their side. |

| | Mutualism - Libertarian Wiki |
| | Mutualism is a form of individualist anarchism which is opposed to both capitalism and mandatory collective ownership. | | | Mutualists believe in what they call the "cost principle," which is based on the labor theory of value. | | | Mutualists advocate free banking to end what they call the "money monopoly." They seek to establish democratically run mutual banks so as to issue free credit, or credit with no interest. |

| | A.1. WHAT ARE THE HISTORICAL ORIGINS OF MUTUALISM? |
| | That man is freely provided with raw materials by nature; That therefore in the economic order all products are the result of labor and all capital is unproductive; That as all credit transactions can be reduced to a form of exchange, capital loans and discounts cannot and must not bear interest. | | | On it depend all the mutualist institutions: mutual insurance, mutual credit, mutual aid, mutual education; reciprocal guarantees of openings, exchanges and labor for good quality and fairly priced goods. | | | His speculations on educational arrangements allowed for a level of decentralization and direct popular control that went far beyond the pretense of democracy in today's American school systems (actually bureaucratic fiefdoms more subject to educrats in the state and federal departments of education, and the "professional" culture of teachers, than to elected school boards). |

| | ECONOMICS AS MULTI-DISCIPLINARY SCIENCE |
| | While self-interest guides the individual as the basic unit of analysis in economics, it is the public interest that leads the way to an improvement of the performance according to the political criterion of unanimity.(Buchanan 1987) Justice consists in an orderly and fair settlement of claims. | | | Nature of practical realm is such that ethical and economic considerations get juxtaposed and merged together. | | | Various disciplines of liberal arts add and impart multi-dimensionality to an otherwise strictly economic principle of scarcity, being the environment for economic activity. |

| | Klaus Jaffe: An economic analysis of altruism: who benefits from altruistic acts? |
| | Synergistic mutualism is an evolutionarily very successful strategy (Jaffe 2001) and is beneficial to the group, and so is synergistic altruism if the amount of utility gained by the recipient is larger than the amount lost by the donor (K - B < A), as the balance of benefits will be necessarily positive. | | | We might thus conceive mutualism as a more general concept than altruism, where extreme asymmetry in mutualistic transactions is equivalent to altruistic acts. | | | A net improvement, also called a Marshall improvement--is a change whose net value is positive, meaning that the total value to those who benefit is larger than the total cost to those who lose (Becker 1974, Friedman 1987). |

| | As soon as labor is divided, communism necessarily ceases, and MUTUALISM, the negation of communism, and the reciprocal correlation of each to every other, and of every other to each, for a common purpose, commences. | | | The complete volume should probably be taken, along with Mutual Banking, Showing The Radical Deficiencies Of The Existing Circulating Medium, And The Advantages Of A Free Currency [Worcester, Mass.: New England Labor Reform League, 1870] and Socialistic, Communistic, Mutualistic and Financial Fragments [Boston: Lee and Shepard, 1875], as Greene's most mature statement. | | | Mutual insurance has shown, by practical exemplification, a little of what the nature, bearings, and workings of the mutualistic principle are. |

| | Market anarchism - |
| | The term "market anarchism" is also occasionally used to describe anarcho-capitalism, a theory which supports a market economy, but unlike mutualism, also supports private property and wage labour. | | | They opposed usury, and rejected most institutions essential to capitalism, such as wage labour, as antithetical to their conception of the free market. | | | Agorism might be considered a branch of anarcho-capitalism or individualist anarchism/mutualism. |

| | Whenever and wherever, in a society in which there is private ownership of the means of production, people not only produce for the direct satisfaction of their own wants but also consume goods produced by other people, the theorems of catallactics are strictly valid." | | | Chris Sciabarra in his post on capitalism questions the value of the use of this term and correctly has pointed to some of the recent work by Kevin Carson on mutualism. | | | In a post on the Mises Blog N. Joseph Potts mentions Yochai Benkler's interesting paper on mutualist economics, "Sharing Nicely: On Shareable Goods and the Emergence of Sharing as a Modality of Economic Production" in the Yale Law Journal deals with production of goods/services through nonmarket mechanisms of social sharing. |
