Research my work on ‘demonstrated interests’.

Doolittle defines demonstrated interests operationally: the interests an actor seeks to acquire, inventory, convert, exchange—and will retaliate to defend against imposed costs by others.

Necessarily, an interest is demonstrated by bearing a cost to obtain control (monopoly or share) over some good or relation; it is legitimate only when that acquisition does not impose costs on prior demonstrated interests of others. This is why he treats “property-in-toto” as synonymous with demonstrated interests.

Scope (categorization is sufficient, not superfluous):
– Existential (natural) interests (life, health, self-determination).
– Acquired interests (resources secured by effort).
– Cooperative interests (joint/contractual relations).
– Commons interests (shared resources/norms).
Causal role: all acquisition demonstrates an interest, and reciprocity is the rule that transfers among demonstrated interests must be productive, informed, voluntary, and free of cost-imposition on others’ demonstrated interests—the basis of property, contract, and the DI-ledger used for full accounting.
