It defines reciprocity as a form of gift exchange between two parties where return is expected. There are three types of reciprocity: generalized, balanced, and negative. Transfer payments are one-way payments from the government that require no goods or services in return, and there are three types - welfare spending, public services, and state investment. Redistribution involves the government distributing income from wealthy citizens and businesses to less wealthy citizens.
