Why and when to love your enemy
Article Abstract:
A mathematical equation for the economic theory of altruism is presented. The love-based approach of this theory views that individual 1's utility is influenced by individual 2's utility. The altruism-based approach views that individual 1's utility is influenced by individual 2's income, health state and other objective variables. The equation presented offers a mathematically plausible statement of the theory.
