Relational goods are non-material goods that can only be produced and consumed within groups, and which are intrinsically linked to relationships and interaction.[1][2] Popular examples include the enjoyment of a football game in a stadium, where the collective enjoyment of the game adds a relational good in terms of excitement and enjoyment to all in the stadium. This constitutes an experience that cannot be had when watching alone. Other examples include group charity work, friendship or reciprocal love.[3] Relational goods can be necessary for the optimization of an activity like the football game example. On the other hand, like Nussbaum suggest, a relational good may be the relationship in itself, with the good being dependent on the existence of the relationship. Friendships is an example of a relationship in which the value that come from the relationship are tied up in the existence and maintenance of the relationship.
This parade is an example of a relational good as the participants and the spectators both must engage in order for the experience to be successful.
The essential point tends to consider relational goods as goods that are produced and consumed simultaneously by those interacting in the
relationship.[2]
