See "Marketplace" article for the traditional meaning of the word.

A market is, as defined in economics, a social arrangement that allows buyers and sellers to discover information and carry out a voluntary exchange. Along with a right to own property, it is one of the two key institutions that organize trade. The existence of markets is one of the key components of capitalism.

Structure

---

The information function of a market requires, at a minimum, that the buyer and seller are both aware of what is being sold and if a voluntary transaction is possible. Economic models assume that such knowledge is perfect, including in knowledge of alternatives and other factors affecting the proposed sale/purchase.
