Abstract

The gift, theorized by Marcel Mauss, has been mainly integrated into economics in its malevolent form. This is underlined by the economic theories of the political market, labor or charity market. This conception contrasts with the benevolent of altruism and the alternative aspect attributed to this practice in regard to the market. To better understand the impure gift, if not the malevolence, this article specifies the definition of a pure (donor) and perfect (recipient) gift. This reference situation implies rational and moral conditions.
