Two Concepts of Competition
Ethics ( IF 10.8 ) Pub Date : 2022-09-20 , DOI: 10.1086/720779
Shai Agmon

I offer a novel distinction between two concepts of competition. The first, parallel competition, is designed to create separate pathways for each competitor wherein they can maximize their performance. The second, friction competition, is designed to facilitate a clash between competitors. Each concept is utilized as an institutional mechanism to generate social benefits. In parallel competition, the social benefit is the result of the aggregation of the independent efforts of each competitor. In friction competition, it emerges from the clash between competitors. I argue that this distinction carries significant normative implications concerning debates over equality, freedom, and democratic institutional design.

竞争的两种概念

我提出了两种竞争概念之间的新区别。第一种是平行竞赛,旨在为每个参赛者创建单独的途径,使他们能够最大限度地发挥自己的表现。第二,摩擦竞争,旨在促进竞争者之间的冲突。每个概念都被用作产生社会效益的制度机制。在平行竞争中,社会效益是各竞争者自主努力的综合结果。在摩擦竞争中,它产生于竞争者之间的冲突。我认为,这种区别对于关于平等、自由和民主制度设计的辩论具有重要的规范意义。
