Anotations

Scope note:

Transfer of property from one individual or group to another, made gratuitously to the recipient, bestowed voluntarily and without monitary compensation. In various societies, gift giving is associated with status, ritual, and tradition for various occasions and circumstances. Reciprocal gifts may be expected, resulting in an exchange of gifts rather than unilateral giving.
