Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: use values
form: use-value
Etymology: Calque of German Gebrauchswert.
Senses: topics: economics
sciences
synonyms: value in use
coordinate_terms: exchange value
glosses: The ability of an object (not necessarily a commodity) to satisfy a human need; a utility.
examples: text: The utility of a thing makes it a use-value. But this utility is not a thing of air. Being limited by the physical properties of the commodity, it has no existence apart from that commodity. A commodity, such as iron, corn, or a diamond, is therefore, so far as it is a material thing, a use-value, something useful. This property of a commodity is independent of the amount of labour required to appropriate its useful qualities.
ref: 1887, Karl Marx, “Commodities”, in Samuel Moore and Edward Aveling, transl., edited by Frederick [i.e., Friedrich] Engels, Capital: A Critical Analysis of Capitalist Production: Translated from the Third German Edition, volume I, London: Swan Sonnenschein, Lowrey, & Co., […], →OCLC, part I (Commodities and Money), section 1 (The Two Factors of a Commodity: Use-Value and Value (The Substance of Value and the Magnitude of Value)), page 2:
text: A commodity is, in the first place, a thing that satisfies a human want; in the second place, it is a thing that can be exchanged for another thing. The utility of a thing makes it a use-value. Exchange-value (or simply, value) presents itself first of all as the ratio, the proportion, in which a certain number of use-values of one sort are exchanged for a certain number of use-values of another sort.

text: Sartre believes that human beings have radical freedom, the liberty to construct ourselves individually and to define collectively what it means to be human, apart from any divine being or God who might determine human nature. For Sartre, this radical freedom reveals our anguish: since we are the positors of meanings and values yet without any ultimate ontological or metaphysical grounds for justification, we find ourselves in anguish, weighed down by angst over our moral choices and their lack of resolution.
