The Principle of Trade in the Light of Contemporary Literature
Abstract
It is conventionally accepted, that trade denotes a secluded economic discipline
in the social division of work, moving the mass of goods from the production to
the consumption sphere. However, there is no complete agreement as to what place
the trade holds in the complex of economic processes as well as to the functions exercised by trade. The correct conception of the essence of trade requires consideration
of special postulates:
a) statements explaining the essence fo trade ought to be so general that they
refer to the complex of this economic discipline,
b) the essence fo trade ought to reflect objectively the existing elements and
not the elements which ought to be,
c) the economic categorie of „trade" should be explained in close connection
with materialistic grounds, of economic relations,
d) the essence of trade ought to be explained on the basis of economics.
In contemporary literature, three basic outlooks on the essence of trade can
be noted. Some authors stress mostly the role of trade in the process of reproduction,
others stress its functions as the distributer of goods, still others, the representatives
of so called theory of service trade, regard trade as the producer of
services in the meaning of rendering of all kinds facilities and benefits on behalf
of the consumers.
Each of these three ideas introduces some hew essential moments and simultaneously
it is debitted with some deficiencies. The basic fault of the theory of services
mostly proposed is, that the different kind of services suggested concern
mainly retail trade, but the remaining spheres of trade are not joined with an aven
type of economic services.
