A market is one of the many varieties of systems, institutions, procedures, social relations and infrastructures whereby parties engage in exchange.

While parties may exchange goods and services by barter, most markets rely on sellers offering their goods or services (including labor) in exchange for money from buyers.

It can be said that a market is the process by which the prices of goods and services are established.

Markets facilitate trade and enable the distribution and allocation of resources in a society.

Markets allow any trade-able item to be evaluated and priced.

A market emerges more or less spontaneously or may be constructed deliberately by human interaction in order to enable the exchange of rights (cf.

ownership) of services and goods.

Markets generally supplant gift economies and are often held in place through rules and customs, such as a booth fee, competitive pricing, source of goods for sale (local produce or stock registration), and the threat of military or police force if these rules are broken.
