Primes¶
- Exchange
- Anthropology: Gift exchange, ceremonial reciprocity, kula rings, bridewealth, dowry, hospitality conventions, with Sahlins's (1972) typology of generalized, balanced, and negative reciprocity drawing the analytic line between open-ended response-in-kind and the structured terms-governed forms that count as exchange in the structural sense.
This sourceAldine-Atherton, Chicago. Chapter 5 ('On the Sociology of Primitive Exchange') develops the threefold typology — generalized (open-ended response-in-kind, no per-episode accounting), balanced (explicit terms-governed counter-transfer within an interval), and negative reciprocity

- Reciprocity
This sourceAldine-Atherton, Chicago. Chapter 5 ("On the Sociology of Primitive Exchange") develops the threefold typology of generalized reciprocity (open-ended response-in-kind without per-episode accounting), balanced reciprocity (explicit terms-governed counter-transfer within a defined interval), and negative reciprocity (attempt to get something for nothing); separates the broad response-in-kind pattern from the structured terms-governed forms that count as exchange in the structural sense.
Mechanisms¶
- Reciprocity Log
- A log that tracks everything can transform warm, generalized giving into anxious balanced reciprocity, where people start refusing to help until their own column looks even — the very shift from open generosity toward tit-for-tat accounting
This sourceDistinguishes open-ended generalized reciprocity from balanced reciprocity, which entails commensurate return within a finite period.
