Hi Shay,
If I may, reciprocity (and its relation to mutuality) has been an ongoing theme in my work. 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).
