Thus, the society must arrange to have these initial, incompatible desires set aside for the sake of so- cially beneficial cooperation. This is accomplished through procedures that pro- mote compromise. Mutual concession is one important such procedure. The reciprocation rule brings about mutual concession in two ways. The first is obvious; it pressures the recipient of an already-made concession to respond in kind. The second, while not so obvious, is pivotally important. Because of a recipi- ent's obligation to reciprocate, people are freed to make the initial concession and, thereby, to begin the beneficial process of exchange. After all, if there were no so- cial obligation to reciprocate a concession, who would want to make the first sac- rifice? To do so would be to risk giving up something and getting nothing back. However, with the rule in effect, we can feel safe making the first sacrifice to our partner, who is obligated to offer a return sacrifice.
