ByFarrukh Khan

In the world of today, markets have evolved into dominant forms that determine how people use, produce, and consume resources within an economy.

This brief essay presents a discussion about the historical forces that caused markets to replace other economic systems, the distinguishing features of a market economy and the place of water as a commodity within the market economy system.
