Reciprocity (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠only causality itself: the cause not only has an effect, but in the effect it relates to itself as cause.

Reciprocity (n.) bends ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the straight line of causes and effects back into a circle — and in all those unthinking repetitions there is only one relation.

Reciprocity (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠representative of a logical superiority that makes it more suitable for the understanding of higher, biological and social phenomena than is unidirectional causality.

Reciprocity (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the completion of the division of actuality which proves to be the notion. It is the grasping of the thing at the point where cause/effect, action/reaction/ possibility/necessity have completely merged with one another. It is sometimes called 'interaction'.
