520 _aAs gift studies thrive in management, the act of giving, defined by the fact that it is free, leads to a dilemma: it is either an act that is free of charge and absurd, or it is motivated and interested. To avoid the trap represented by this dilemma, it is proposed that gift-giving be considered a language. Gifting has a meaningful value. It forms symbols that have a differential value; they are arranged according to specific rules that provide sufficient latitude to allow rhetorical effects. Gift-giving should be one of the languages that cross through organizations.
