Traded and Non-traded Services
The service sector is steadily growing as services that previously were undertaken within the family unit, now show up in social accounts as health care, education and public sector services. Technological changes make possible a process of intermediation in service activities, a separation in space or time of the recipient of services from the original producer, and the increase of v̀alue-added' services.

A society is considered economically and socially developed if adequate protections are provided for faith, life, intellect, progeny, and wealth.
