Utu is a Māori concept of reciprocation or balance.
To retain mana, both friendly and unfriendly actions require an appropriate response, hence utu covers both the reciprocation of kind deeds,[1] and the seeking of revenge.[2]
Utu is one of the key principles of the constitutional tradition of Māori along with whanaungatanga (the centrality of relationships), mana and tapu/noa (the recognition of the spiritual dimension).[3]
Utu can also be used in reference to monetary repayments, paying or repaying.[4]
