Concept information

Preferred term

commodification  

Definition(s)

  • Commodification enables things to circulate in a market system of exchange, that is, in a system that values above all else the exchangeability of all things. This substitutes a different relationship between things and their creators, and between things themselves as such, than prevailed before the contractual relations and the transfers of value that enable market exchanges. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Commodification]
