Eva Kittay's Love's Labor contains a discussion of reciprocity; if I recall correctly she discusses the idea of transitive reciprocity, though she may not call it that. Also see David Schmidtz's chapter on reciprocity in Elements of Justice. He talks there about transitive reciprocity, which is an idea that is perhaps useful for feminism. You might also look at Shlomi Segall, "Unconditional Welfare Benefits and the Principle of Reciprocity."

I specifically analyze the concept of reciprocity in an early article that appeared in the Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science. Not sure I have a scan of it to send you, but you can probably find it online. (Let me know if not, and I'll scan and send it). It's entitled "Beyond Causality in the Social Sciences: Reciprocity as a Model of Non-Exploitative Social Relations," in Epistemology, Methodology and the Social Sciences: Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science, vol. 71, ed. R. S. Cohen and M. W. Wartofsky (Boston and Dordrecht: D. Reidel, 1983), 53-88. The various forms of reciprocity there (tit for tat or instrumental, reciprocity of respect, etc.) play a role in my book Rethinking Democracy (CUP, 1988), especially chapter 1, and in subsequent work, most recently, in my “Recognition in Redistribution: Care and Diversity in Global Justice,” Southern Journal of Philosophy, 46 (2008, Supplement): 91-103. Another important study of reciprocity proper is the book by Larry Becker, entitled Reciprocity (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1990). > > An important concept, worthy of much more analysis.

Or any articles written about feminist reciprocity? While I have tons of stuff that talks about reciprocity, I cannot find a source that has the concept as its focus.
