The rationing function refers to the mechanism by which limited resources are distributed among competing uses or individuals, typically in a market context. It helps allocate scarce goods or services based on demand and supply dynamics, ensuring that those who value the resource most are able to obtain it. This function is often observed in situations of scarcity, where prices adjust to reflect the availability of resources and influence consumer behavior accordingly. Ultimately, it plays a critical role in promoting efficiency and equity in resource allocation.
In Britain rationing lasted 14 years. From 1940 to 1954. In Western Germany rationing lasted 15 years.
